49-558 1.00 mm Dia. Ruby Doped Sapphire Half-Ball Lenses Uncoated

The 49-558 is a 1.00 mm diameter Ruby Doped Sapphire Half-Ball Lens, uncoated, sourced from the reputable optical vendor, Edmund Optics. This lens, with its unique half-ball shape, is designed for specific optical applications where a spherical surface is required.

The lens's geometry includes a diameter of 1.00 mm, a thickness of 0.50 mm, and an inner radius of 0 mm, with no specified outer radius. The base shape is circular, which is typical for half-ball lenses. The material of the lens is Ruby Doped Sapphire, identified by the Material ID "al2o3 mal-1972-n-o" in the item data.

The lens is designed to operate at a wavelength of 587.6 nm, which is in the visible light spectrum. This wavelength corresponds to the color yellow in the standard rainbow spectrum.

Notably, the lens is uncoated. Coatings are often applied to lenses to enhance their performance in specific applications, such as reducing reflection, increasing transmission, or providing environmental protection. However, this lens, in its uncoated form, offers a different set of properties that may be suitable for certain applications.
