Bf-px-12.7-25 12.7 mm Dia. BaF2 Plano-Convex Lens; EFL=25.4mm Uncoated
The Bf-px-12.7-25 is a 12.7 mm diameter Plano-Convex lens made from BaF2 (Barium Fluoride) material, sourced from Alkor Technologies. This lens is uncoated and features a focal length of 25.4mm, making it suitable for a wide range of optical applications.
The lens geometry includes a thickness of 2mm at the edge and 4mm at the center, with an effective focal length (EFL) of 25.4mm. The inner radius is 0, while the outer radius is also 0, indicating a plano surface. The lens has a spherical shape, which is a common choice for its ability to focus light to a single point.
The BaF2 material is chosen for its excellent transmission properties in the ultraviolet, visible, and near-infrared regions. This makes the lens ideal for use in applications such as UV spectroscopy, laser systems, and other applications where high transmission and low absorption are required.
The lens is available from Alkor Technologies, and the provided weblink indicates that it is currently in stock. This information, along with the detailed specifications, should help users in their selection process for optical components with similar properties.
