SLB-10B-100P 10.0 mm Dia. x 100.4 mm FL; Double-Convex Lens Uncoated

The SLB-10B-100P is a high-quality double-convex lens offered by OptoSigma, a leading vendor in the optical industry. This lens, with a base shape of a circle, is designed for use in a wide range of optical applications.

The lens features a diameter of 10.0 mm, ensuring a substantial light-gathering capacity. The thickness at the edge is 2.0 mm, while the center thickness is slightly more at 2.2 mm, providing structural integrity and minimizing optical distortion. The effective focal length (EFL) of this lens is 100.4 mm, making it suitable for applications requiring moderate magnification.

The lens is made from n-BK7 Schott, a popular optical glass known for its excellent optical properties and versatility. The radii of curvature for the first and second surfaces are 103.8 mm and -103.8 mm, respectively, indicating a symmetrical, double-convex design. The back focal length (BFL) is 99.6 mm, which is crucial for determining the placement of the lens in an optical system.

The lens is uncoated, which means it does not have any anti-reflective coatings. While this may result in higher reflective losses, it also means the lens is less susceptible to damage from environmental factors, making it a robust choice for certain applications.

This lens is designed to work with a wavelength of 546.1 nm, a common reference wavelength in optical systems. The shape of the lens is spherical, which is the most common type of lens shape due to its ease of manufacturing and versatility.
