Penta Prism is Deviation Prisms.
An incident beam can be deviated by 90 degree without inverting
or reversing through a Penta prism. Penta prism has five sides,
four of them polished.
Two reflective sides are coated with metal or dielectric HR coating
and these two sides can be blackened. The deviation angle of 90deg
will not be changed if the penta prism is slightly adjusted, this
will be convenient to install it.
Penta prism is widely used in laser level, alignment and optical
tooling.
