This is the 23-868 model from Edmund Optics, a 25mm diameter Fused Silica Precision Laser Aspheric Lens, specifically designed for use with a wavelength of 355nm. The lens boasts an effective focal length (EFL) of 75mm and a numerical aperture (NA) of 0.16, making it ideal for high-precision laser applications.
The lens features a unique aspheric design, which is characterized by its non-spherical surface. This design helps to minimize spherical aberration, a common issue in optical systems, thereby improving the overall image quality. The base shape of the lens is circular, and it has a thickness of 3.78mm at the edge and 5.5mm at the center.
The lens is made from fused silica, a material known for its excellent optical properties, including high transparency and resistance to thermal shock. This makes the lens suitable for use in harsh environments and ensures a long service life.
The lens is coated with Edmund Optics' Laser V-Coat 355, a proprietary coating that is specifically designed to enhance the lens' performance in laser applications. This coating reduces reflection and increases transmission, thereby improving the efficiency of the optical system.
