The 46-116 0.40 mm Dia. Sapphire Ball Lenses Uncoated are precision optical components designed for a wide range of applications. Sourced from the renowned vendor Edmund Optics, these lenses are known for their exceptional quality and performance.
These ball lenses, with a diameter of 0.40 mm, are made from high-quality sapphire, a material with the chemical formula Al2O3. Sapphire is chosen for its excellent optical properties, including a high refractive index and low absorption across a wide spectrum. It is also highly resistant to scratching and environmental damage, making it an ideal choice for applications that require durability and longevity.
The 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. They are suitable for applications where such enhancements are not necessary.
The lenses are designed in a ball shape, which provides a wide field of view and minimal optical aberrations. This makes them ideal for use in imaging systems, laser applications, and other optical systems where high-quality image reproduction is crucial.
