The SLSQ-05-20P is a Plano-Convex Lens, sourced from OptoSigma, a renowned vendor in the optical industry. This lens, with a diameter of 5.0 mm, is designed for use in various optical systems, offering a focal length of 20.0 mm.
The lens is fabricated from fused silica, a material known for its excellent optical properties, including high transparency and resistance to thermal shock. The Plano-Convex geometry, where one side is flat and the other is curved, allows for efficient light convergence. The lens's edge thickness is 1.2 mm, while the center thickness is 1.5 mm, providing structural integrity and minimizing optical distortions.
The lens's design features a base shape of a circle, ensuring uniform light distribution. The inner and outer radii are both zero, indicating a uniform curvature across the lens. The effective focal length (EFL) is 20.0 mm, and the back focal length (BFL) is 19.0 mm, which are crucial specifications for accurate system design and integration.
The SLSQ-05-20P operates at a wavelength of 546.1 nm, making it suitable for applications that use visible light. It is uncoated, offering users the flexibility to apply their preferred coating based on their specific application requirements.
