46-120 2.38 mm Dia. Sapphire Ball Lenses Uncoated

The 46-120 2.38 mm Dia. Sapphire Ball Lenses Uncoated are precision optical components designed for a wide range of applications. These lenses are sourced from Edmund Optics, a leading vendor known for its high-quality optical elements.

The lenses feature a base shape of a circle, with a diameter of 2.38 mm, making them suitable for use in compact optical systems. The geometry of the lens is defined by its inner radius, which is 0, and its outer radius, also 0, indicating a uniform spherical shape.

The lenses are made from Sapphire (al2o3 mal-1972-n-o), a material known for its exceptional optical properties, including high transparency and hardness. This makes the lenses ideal for use in harsh environments where durability is a key factor.

The lenses are designed to operate at a wavelength of 587.6 nm, which falls 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 or laser applications.

Notably, these lenses are uncoated, meaning they do not have any additional layers applied to their surfaces to alter their optical properties. This can be advantageous in certain applications where a natural lens surface is preferred. However, it's important to note that uncoated lenses may have higher reflectivity and lower transmission compared to coated lenses.
