The 46-119 1.59 mm Dia. Sapphire Ball Lenses Uncoated are precision optical components designed for a wide range of applications. Sourced from the reputable vendor Edmund Optics, these lenses are known for their exceptional quality and performance.
These ball lenses feature a diameter of 1.59 mm, making them suitable for use in compact optical systems where space is at a premium. The base shape is circular, which is ideal for applications requiring uniform light distribution. The geometry of these lenses is defined by their inner radius of 0 and outer radius of 0, indicating a smooth, continuous surface.
The lenses are made from Sapphire (al2o3 mal-1972-n-o), a high-quality material known for its excellent optical properties. This material is particularly suitable for applications requiring high thermal shock resistance and chemical inertness.
The wavelength of these lenses is 587.6 nm, which is within the visible light spectrum. This makes them suitable for use in applications where light transmission and clarity are critical, such as in imaging systems, illumination systems, and beam shaping applications.
The lenses are uncoated, which means they do not have any additional layers to enhance their optical properties. However, this also means they are less susceptible to damage from environmental factors and handling.
