The L-BAL015 is a ball lens with a diameter of 1 mm, sourced from the renowned optical component vendor, Ross Optical. This lens is made of N-BK7, a popular glass type in the optical industry, known for its excellent optical properties, making it suitable for a wide range of applications.
The N-BK7, or Schott glass, is a borosilicate crown glass with a low refractive index and low dispersion. This makes it an ideal material for lenses used in imaging systems, beam shaping, and other applications where high image quality and low distortion are required.
The ball lens geometry is a sphere, which provides a unique optical characteristic. It focuses light to a single point, making it ideal for use in optical fiber coupling, laser beam shaping, and other applications where a concentrated light source is required.
The lens is uncoated, meaning it does not have any additional layers of material applied to its surface. This can be beneficial in certain applications where a specific coating is not required, or where the user prefers to apply their own coating to meet their specific needs.
The lens is currently in stock and available for immediate purchase. For more information, including pricing and detailed specifications, please refer to the vendor's website using the provided weblink.
