BF33 glass properties
BF33 glass is a preferred choice for precision optics due to its exceptional characteristics. Its low thermal expansion coefficient makes it resistant to thermal shock, a major advantage for high-power laser applications. Additionally, its high transparency across a broad spectrum (UV, visible, and near-infrared) and excellent chemical resistance make it a reliable and durable material for demanding environments.
Applications
This prism is perfectly suited for a variety of applications in the laser manufacturing industry, including:
- Beam steering and deflection
- Beam shaping
- Interferometry
- Precision optical instrumentation
