The LB5 5 mm Dia. LASFN9 Spherical Ball Micro Lenses are precision optical components designed for a wide range of applications. These lenses, sourced from the reputable vendor MKS/Newport, are characterized by their ball shape and uncoated surface. The lens has a diameter of 5 mm and an effective focal length (EFL) of 2.75 mm, making it suitable for systems with specific space and optical path requirements.
The LASFN9 material, a type of Schott glass, is known for its excellent optical properties, including high transparency and a refractive index suitable for visible light, with a central wavelength of 587.6 nm. This makes the lens ideal for applications that require high-quality imaging or light transmission in the visible spectrum.
The uncoated surface of the lens is a notable feature. While coatings can enhance certain optical properties, such as reducing reflection or increasing transmission, an uncoated lens can be advantageous in certain applications where specific coating properties are not required. This can simplify the design and manufacturing process, potentially reducing costs and lead times.
