The 43-708 1.00 mm Dia. N-BK7 Ball Lenses Uncoated are precision optical components designed for a wide range of applications. Sourced from the renowned optical vendor Edmund Optics, these lenses are known for their exceptional quality and performance.
These ball lenses are made from N-BK7, a popular borosilicate crown glass manufactured by Schott. N-BK7 is widely used in the optical industry due to its excellent optical properties, including a high refractive index and low dispersion. This makes it an ideal material for applications that require high-quality imaging or light transmission.
The lenses have a diameter of 1.00 mm, making them suitable for use in compact optical systems. The ball shape of the lens allows for efficient light gathering and transmission from all angles, making these lenses particularly useful in applications such as fiber optics, endoscopes, and microscopy.
These lenses are uncoated, meaning they do not have any additional layers applied to their surfaces. While coatings can enhance certain optical properties, such as reducing reflection or increasing transmission, uncoated lenses offer a simpler, more cost-effective solution for many applications.
The lenses are currently in stock and can be purchased directly from the Edmund Optics website. Detailed product information, including technical specifications and pricing, can be found at the following link: https://www.edmundoptics.com/p/10mm-diameter-n-bk7-ball-lens/5213/
