This Laser Grade Plano-Convex Lens, model 38-727, is a high-quality optical component designed for use in laser applications. Sourced from the reputable vendor Edmund Optics, this lens boasts a diameter of 25.4mm and a focal length of 250mm, making it suitable for a wide range of laser-based systems.
The lens is constructed from UVFS MAL-1965, a material specifically engineered for optical applications. It features a plano-convex geometry, with a spherical shape that is circular in base form. The lens has a thickness of 3.27mm at the edge and 4mm at the center, providing robustness and durability. The effective focal length (EFL) is 250mm, and the radius of curvature (R1) is 119.02mm, contributing to its excellent optical performance.
The 38-727 lens is coated with EDM Las V-Coat 1064, a specialized coating that enhances its performance in laser applications, particularly those using a wavelength of 1064nm. This coating is applied to both the front and back surfaces of the lens, ensuring optimal laser transmission and minimal reflection.
