An optical wedge is a component used in optical systems to deflect light by small angles. Typically, two optical wedges are used in pairs. By rotating each wedge individually, the outgoing light can be directed to any direction within a cone whose axis is aligned with the incident light.
Optical wedges are suitable for small-angle deflection of light beams in optical systems, with wedge angles of 2° and 4° available. They can deflect light beams normally incident on the vertical surface of the prism by 2° to 4°. Wedge prisms can be used alone for laser beam steering or in pairs: by rotating each wedge individually, the outgoing light can be directed to any direction within a cone with the incident light as the axis.
