The SLB-30-1000PIR1 is a Plano-Convex Spherical Lens, 30.0 mm in diameter and 1000.0 mm in focal length, sourced from OptoSigma. This lens is made of n-bk7 schott material, a popular choice for its high refractive index and low dispersion. The lens's geometry includes a 2.0 mm edge thickness and a 2.2 mm center thickness, contributing to its robustness and durability.
The lens boasts an effective focal length (EFL) of 1000.0 mm, making it suitable for applications requiring long focal lengths. The front and back surfaces of the lens are coated with opt ir1, a coating that enhances its performance in the infrared spectrum, specifically between 633 and 1064 nm. This coating ensures optimal transmission and reduces reflection, making the lens ideal for infrared applications.
The lens's base shape is circular, and its geometry is spherical, which is a common choice for its ease of manufacturing and versatility. Despite its simple design, this lens can deliver high-quality, distortion-free images, making it a reliable choice for various optical applications.
