KPC064AR.18 50.8 mm Dia. x -500 mm FL; IR coated; Plano-Concave Lens 1000-1550nm

The KPC064AR.18 is a Plano-Concave Lens, a type of spherical lens, with a diameter of 50.8 mm and a focal length of -500 mm. This lens is sourced from MKS/Newport, a renowned vendor in the optical industry. The lens is designed for use within the infrared spectrum, specifically between 1000-1550nm, making it suitable for applications such as IR spectroscopy, thermal imaging, and other infrared-based technologies.

The lens is made from N-BK7 Schott, a popular optical glass due to its excellent optical properties and versatility. The lens features a new AR-18 coating on both the front and back surfaces, which is designed to reduce reflection and increase transmission within the specified wavelength range. This coating enhances the lens' performance in IR applications by minimizing signal loss and improving image quality.

The lens has a thickness of 3.51mm at the edge and 2.5mm at the center, providing a robust structure while maintaining a low profile. The inner and outer radii are 0mm, indicating a simple, straightforward design. The lens' geometry is designed to converge light rays towards a single point, making it ideal for use in laser systems, beam shaping, and other applications where light needs to be focused or dispersed.

The KPC064AR.18 is currently in stock and available for immediate purchase. For more detailed information, including technical specifications and performance data, please refer to the vendor's website at https://www.newport.com/f/ar18-n-bk7-plano-concave-lenses.
