G314003000 10 mm Dia. N-BK7 Plano-Concave Lens; EFL=-10mm Uncoated

This is a Plano-Concave lens, type G314003000, with a diameter of 10 mm and a center thickness of 1 mm. The lens is made of N-BK7, a popular optical glass from Schott, known for its excellent optical properties and wide transparency range. The lens has a negative focal length (EFL) of -10 mm, making it suitable for use in various applications where light needs to be diverged or focused over a short distance.

The lens's geometry is spherical, with a radius of curvature (R1) of -5.168 mm for the concave surface. The inner and outer radii are 0, indicating that the lens is a simple meniscus shape. The lens is uncoated, which means it does not have any anti-reflective or other coatings. This may result in higher reflective losses, but it also means the lens is more cost-effective and suitable for applications where such losses are not critical.

The lens is designed to operate at a wavelength of 588 nm, but it can be used over a broader spectral range depending on the specific application requirements. It is sourced from Qioptiq Photonics, a leading global supplier of photonic solutions and components. The lens is currently in stock and available for immediate purchase through their online shop.
