67-952 12mm Dia. x 50mm FL; Laser Grade Plano-Convex Lens Laser V-Coat 355nm
The 67-952 is a laser grade plano-convex lens, boasting a 12mm diameter and a 50mm focal length. This lens, sourced from Edmund Optics, is designed for use with a 355nm wavelength, making it suitable for a variety of applications in the ultraviolet spectrum.
The lens is constructed from fused silica (mal-1965), a material known for its high transparency and resistance to thermal shock. The front and back surfaces of the lens are coated with Edmund Optics' Laser V-Coat 355, a specialized coating that enhances the lens's performance in laser applications.
The geometry of the lens is characterized by its 2.1mm thickness at the edge and 2.9mm thickness at the center. The lens's effective focal length (EFL) is 50mm, and its radius of curvature (R1) is 22.92mm. The back focal length (BFL) is 48.01mm, and both the inner and outer radii are 0mm.
This lens is a spherical lens with a base shape of a circle. It is a plano-convex lens, meaning one side is flat (plano) and the other side is curved (convex). This design allows for efficient light collection and focusing, making it ideal for laser applications.
