This 65-535 Plano-Convex Lens, sourced from Edmund Optics, is a spherical lens with a 9.0mm diameter and a focal length of 18.0mm, specifically designed for use with a wavelength of 1064nm. The lens is made from n-BK7 Schott, a high-quality optical glass known for its excellent transparency and low auto-fluorescence, making it ideal for laser applications.
The lens features a plano-convex geometry, where one side is flat (plano) and the other side is curved (convex). This design allows for a high degree of customization, as the curvature of the convex side can be adjusted to meet specific application requirements. The lens has a thickness of 1.25mm at the edge and 2.41mm at the center, providing a balanced profile that ensures efficient light transmission.
The 65-535 lens is coated with Edmund Optics' Laser V-Coat, a proprietary coating designed for high-power laser applications. This coating enhances the lens's durability and performance, reducing surface reflections to less than 0.25% at 1064nm. The coating is applied to both the front and back surfaces of the lens, ensuring optimal performance from all angles.
