The 67-971 is a laser grade plano-convex lens, boasting a 12mm diameter and a 36mm focal length, specifically designed for use with a 1064nm wavelength. This lens is sourced from the reputable optical vendor, Edmund Optics, and is currently in stock.
The lens is constructed from fused silica, a high-quality material with the material ID 1965, ensuring durability and reliability. It features a plano-convex geometry, where one side is flat (plano) and the other side is curved (convex). This particular lens has a 16.51mm radius on the curved side, contributing to its focal length of 34.29mm.
The lens's edge thickness is 1.37mm, while the center thickness is 2.5mm, providing a balanced structure for efficient light transmission. The lens's clear aperture is its entire diameter, allowing for maximum light transmission.
The lens is coated with Edmund Optics' Laser V-Coat, a specialized coating designed for use with 1064nm lasers. This coating enhances the lens's performance by reducing surface reflections and increasing transmission, making it ideal for high-powered laser applications.
