The 110-0255E is a Plano-Convex lens with a diameter of 25.4 mm and a focal length of 800 mm. This lens is sourced from EKSMA Optics, a renowned vendor in the optical components industry. The lens is made of BK7 Schott, a high-quality borosilicate glass known for its excellent optical properties, including a low refractive index and low dispersion.
The lens's geometry is characterized by its edge thickness of 2.8 mm and center thickness of 3 mm. The inner radius is 0 mm, and the outer radius is also 0 mm, indicating a plano surface on one side and a curved surface on the other. The curvature of the curved surface is defined by a radius of 415 mm.
This lens is uncoated, meaning it does not have any anti-reflective or other coatings applied to its surfaces. This can be advantageous in certain applications where the natural properties of the glass are desired, or where cost considerations are a factor. However, it should be noted that uncoated lenses can suffer from increased reflection and reduced transmission, especially at larger angles of incidence or when used with broadband light sources.
The lens is designed to operate at a wavelength of 546 nm, making it suitable for use in a wide range of applications, from basic optical systems to more complex setups. Its spherical shape ensures excellent image quality and low distortion, making it a versatile choice for many optical design needs.
