SLSQ-05B-15P 5.0 mm Dia. x 15.3 mm FL; Double-Convex Lens Uncoated

The SLSQ-05B-15P is a high-quality double-convex lens, sourced from the reputable vendor OptoSigma. This lens is designed for use in a wide range of optical applications, thanks to its precise geometry and premium fused silica material.

The lens features a base shape of a circle, with a diameter of 5.0 mm. The edge thickness is 1.2 mm, while the center thickness is 1.7 mm, providing a robust structure that can withstand typical use. The effective focal length (EFL) of this lens is 15.3 mm, making it suitable for applications that require a longer focal length.

The curvature of the lens is defined by its first and second radii of curvature, R1 and R2, which are 13.8 mm and -13.8 mm respectively. These values indicate a symmetrical, double-convex lens, which is ideal for focusing light to a single point. The back focal length (BFL) of this lens is 14.7 mm, which is the distance from the lens's rear surface to the focused light beam.

The lens is made from fused silica, a material with a high index of refraction and low dispersion, making it ideal for applications that require high optical performance. The material ID for this lens is 'fused sil mal-1965', which can be used for further reference or comparison with other materials.

This lens is designed to work with light of wavelength 546.1 nm, which is within the visible light spectrum. The lens has a spherical shape, which is the most common and versatile lens shape. It does not come with any coating, which means it is uncoated. However, it can be customized with various coatings upon request to enhance its performance in specific applications.
