45-968 1.5mm Dia. x 1.0mm FL; Telecom-NIR Coated; Plano-Convex Lens

The 45-968 is a plano-convex lens with a diameter of 1.5mm and a focal length of 1.0mm, sourced from the reputable optical components vendor, Edmund Optics. This lens is designed for use in the telecom-NIR (near-infrared) spectrum, making it suitable for applications in telecommunications, sensing, and other fields that utilize near-infrared light.

The lens is made from n-lasf9 Schott, a high-quality optical material known for its excellent transmission properties in the near-infrared region. The plano-convex geometry, where one side is flat and the other is curved, allows for efficient light collection and focusing. The lens has a center thickness of 0.8mm and an edge thickness of 0.35mm, providing a balance between optical performance and mechanical robustness.

The lens features a Telecom-NIR coating on both the front and back surfaces. This coating is designed to enhance the lens' performance in the near-infrared spectrum, improving transmission and reducing reflections. The coating status is "in stock" as of the time of this description, indicating its availability for immediate purchase and use.
