Beam-path task
Define whether the prism redirects, erects, rotates or divides the optical path.
Product family / Procurement guide
Optical Prisms
Optical prisms redirect, rotate, fold or split an optical path through controlled geometry and surface orientation. The procurement decision depends on beam-path function, prism form, angles, coated faces and mounting orientation.

02 / HOW TO CHOOSE
Build the requirement around the buying decision
Geometry and orientation
Confirm prism type, input/output faces and installed orientation.
Surface treatment
Identify coated, reflective or bonded faces only where required by the design.
Selection and configuration considerations
- Prism names alone may not define the required orientation.
- Drawings should identify functional faces and datum references.
- Coating decisions follow wavelength, incidence and beam-path requirements.
03 / APPLICATION CONTEXT

Describe the application, optical function and operating conditions so the relevant product routes can be compared.
04 / RFQ INPUTS
Move from family to specification
Share the component type, material or wavelength context, known dimensions, quantity, application and a drawing when available. Include the details you know and identify any open points for confirmation.

Common procurement questions
Why is prism orientation important in an RFQ?
The same geometry can be installed differently, changing which faces and angles are functional.
What should a prism drawing identify?
Show the prism form, critical faces, orientation, dimensions and any coated or bonded surfaces.
Is a prism type enough to confirm supply?
No. The application, material, wavelength and drawing details still require review.
