46-117 0.50 mm Dia. Sapphire Ball Lenses Uncoated

The 46-117 0.50 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 lenses belong to the category of Ball Lenses, which are characterized by their spherical shape. The geometry of these lenses includes a diameter of 0.50 mm, with no inner or outer radius specified, indicating a uniform spherical surface. The base shape is circular, further emphasizing the spherical design.

The material of these lenses is Sapphire, specifically identified as al2o3 mal-1972-n-o in the item data. Sapphire is a highly durable and scratch-resistant material, making these lenses ideal for rigorous applications. The wavelength for these lenses is 587.6 nm, indicating their suitability for applications that require precise light manipulation at this specific wavelength.

Notably, these lenses are uncoated. Coatings are often applied to lenses to enhance their performance in specific ways, such as reducing reflection or increasing transmission. However, these sapphire ball lenses are designed to function optimally without any additional coatings.
