BICC-12.7/10.8UV 12.7 mm Dia. x -10 mm FL; Uncoated; Double-Concave Lens
This is a double-concave lens, also known as a biconcave lens, sourced from the reputable vendor Laser Components. The lens has a base shape of a circle and is designed for use with a wavelength of 248 nm. The lens is made of fused sil mal-1965, a material known for its excellent optical properties.
The lens has a diameter of 12.7 mm and a thickness at the edge of 6.1 mm. The center thickness is 2 mm, making it suitable for applications where a thin lens is required. The effective focal length (EFL) of this lens is -10 mm, indicating that it is a diverging lens, causing parallel light rays to spread out.
The lens has two radii of curvature: r1 is -10.8 mm, and r2 is 10.8 mm. These radii determine the shape of the lens and its optical properties. The inner and outer radii are both 0, indicating that the lens is uniformly curved.
The lens does not come with any coating, which means it is uncoated. This may affect its performance in certain applications, particularly those requiring high transmission or resistance to environmental factors. However, uncoated lenses are often more cost-effective and can be suitable for many applications.
The lens is in stock and available for immediate purchase. More information about this lens, including detailed specifications and ordering instructions, can be found on the Laser Components website.
