This 34-145 plano-convex lens, offered by Edmund Optics, is a high-quality optical component designed for use in laser applications at a wavelength of 1064nm. The lens boasts a diameter of 25mm and a focal length of 150mm, making it suitable for a wide range of optical systems.
The lens is crafted from fused silica, a material known for its excellent optical properties, including a low coefficient of thermal expansion and high resistance to thermal shock. This makes the lens an ideal choice for applications that require stability and durability in challenging environmental conditions.
The lens features a plano-convex geometry, with a spherical surface on one side and a flat surface on the other. This design allows for efficient light collection and focusing, making the lens particularly suitable for use in laser systems. The lens has a center thickness of 3.18mm and an edge thickness of 2.04mm, providing a robust and stable platform for optical operations.
The lens is coated with Edmund Optics' Laser V-Coat, a broadband anti-reflective coating specifically designed for use with 1064nm lasers. This coating reduces surface reflections, enhancing the transmission of light through the lens and improving the overall efficiency of the optical system.
