43-640 1.50 mm Dia. Sapphire Ball Lenses Uncoated
The 43-640 is a 1.50 mm diameter ball lens, sourced from the reputable optical components vendor, Edmund Optics. This lens, classified under the "Lens" category and specifically as a "Ball Lens", is characterized by its circular base shape.
The lens's geometry is defined by a diameter of 1.50 mm, with no inner or outer radius specified, indicating a uniform spherical shape. The material composition of this lens is sapphire, identified by the Material ID "al2o3 mal-1972-n-o". Sapphire, known for its durability and excellent optical properties, is a popular choice for many optical applications.
The lens is designed to operate at a wavelength of 587.6 nm. It is important to note that the lens does not come with any coating, as indicated in the item data. This may affect its performance in certain applications, particularly those requiring specific surface properties such as anti-reflective or protective coatings.
