This is a 50.0mm diameter by 100.0mm focal length plano-convex lens, designed for use with a 1064nm wavelength. The lens is sourced from Edmund Optics, a reputable vendor in the optical industry.
The lens is made from n-BK7 Schott, a high-quality optical glass known for its excellent transparency and low auto-fluorescence. The plano-convex geometry, where one side is flat and the other is curved, is ideal for applications that require a collimated beam.
The lens has a center thickness of 10mm and an edge thickness of 3.55mm, providing robustness and durability. The effective focal length (EFL) is 100mm, which is the distance from the lens center to the point at which the beam converges or diverges.
The lens features a laser V-coat coating on both the front and back surfaces, designed to enhance its performance in laser applications. This coating reduces reflection and increases transmission, improving the efficiency and quality of the laser beam.
The inner and outer radii of the lens are 0mm, indicating a sharp curvature that contributes to its focusing power. The lens is spherical in shape, meaning it has the same curvature in all meridional planes, ensuring a uniform focus.
