The beam splitter prism is a precision optical component based on an intricate optical design. Its core structure typically employs a cubic or wedge-shaped configuration, combined with multi-layer dielectric coating technology. It finds extensive application in fields such as laser interferometry, holographic imaging, quantum optics experiments, and 3D sensing systems.

Dove Prism
Dove prisms are reflective optical elements optimized from right-angle prisms. Their core structure consists of a right-angle prism with its apex removed. Light entering through the inclined surface undergoes total internal reflection at the base surface before exiting through the other inclined surface. This achieves a 180° image inversion (without left-right reversal) through a single reflection.

Dispersive Prism
A dispersion prism is an optical element designed based on the principle that a material's refractive index varies with wavelength. Through its specific geometric structure, it causes incident white light or polychromatic light to undergo multiple refractions and dispersions within the prism, ultimately separating light of different wavelengths into a sequential continuous spectrum (such as rainbow-like bands).
Product List
Advantages

- Chemical Inertness: Exhibits high resistance to acids, alkalis, and organic solvents, making it suitable for harsh environments such as industrial inspection and environmental monitoring.
Corner Cube Prism
Corner cube prisms are optical elements composed of three mutually perpendicular reflective surfaces, structurally resembling a cube with one corner removed. Incident light undergoes sequential reflection off the prism's three surfaces, emerging parallel to the incident beam but propagating in the opposite direction. The optical path difference depends solely on the prism's geometric dimensions and is independent of the angle of incidence.
