88-972 20.0mm Dia. x 35.0mm FL; Plano-Convex Lens Laser V-Coat 405nm

The 88-972 is a Plano-Convex spherical lens, sourced from Edmund Optics, designed for use with a wavelength of 405nm. This lens boasts a diameter of 20.0mm and a focal length of 35.0mm, making it suitable for a variety of applications.

The lens is constructed from n-BK7 Schott, a high-quality optical glass known for its excellent transparency and low dispersion. This material ensures that the lens delivers clear, distortion-free images, making it ideal for use in high-precision optical systems.

The lens features a Plano-Convex geometry, with a center thickness of 4.5mm and an edge thickness of 1.48mm. This geometry provides a large, flat surface for light to enter the lens, while the curved surface focuses the light to a point, enhancing the lens's focusing capabilities.

The lens is coated with Edmund Optics' Laser V-Coat 405, a highly durable coating designed to enhance the lens's performance in laser applications. This coating reduces surface reflections, increasing the amount of light that passes through the lens, and improves the lens's resistance to laser damage, ensuring long-term performance and reliability.
