SLSQ-30-1200P 30.0 mm Dia. x 1200.0 mm FL; Plano-Convex Lens Uncoated

The SLSQ-30-1200P is a Plano-Convex lens with a diameter of 30.0 mm and a focal length of 1200.0 mm. This lens is sourced from OptoSigma, a renowned vendor in the optical industry. The lens is made of fused silica, a material with a high damage threshold and excellent transmission properties, making it suitable for various applications.

The lens geometry includes a thickness edge of 2.0 mm and a thickness center of 2.2 mm. The inner and outer radii are both 0 mm, indicating a sharp edge and a flat back surface. The lens has a base shape of a circle, which is the most common shape for optical elements due to its symmetry and ease of manufacturing.

The SLSQ-30-1200P is designed for use at a wavelength of 546.1 nm, which is in the middle of the visible light spectrum. It is uncoated, meaning it does not have any anti-reflective or other coatings. This can be advantageous in some applications where the natural properties of the material are desired, but it may also result in higher reflectivity and lower transmission compared to coated lenses.

The lens is spherical, meaning it has a constant curvature over its surface. This shape is simple to manufacture and provides good image quality for most applications. However, it may introduce spherical aberration in some cases, especially for large apertures or off-axis use.
