The AC508-500-C-ML is a mounted achromatic doublet lens, designed and manufactured by Thorlabs. This lens is specifically engineered for use within the 1050-1700nm wavelength range, making it suitable for a variety of applications within the infrared spectrum.
The lens features a 50.8 mm diameter, with a thickness of 9.9 mm at the edge and 8.8 mm at the center. The lens is constructed from two materials, SF5 and N-SF6HT, both from Schott. These materials are chosen for their specific optical properties, which contribute to the lens's overall performance.
The lens is coated with Thorlabs' AC1050-1700-C coating on both the front and back surfaces. This coating is designed to optimize the lens's performance within the 1050-1700nm wavelength range.
The lens is a multiplet, meaning it is composed of multiple elements. This design allows for the correction of chromatic aberrations, ensuring that the lens produces clear, focused images across the entire wavelength range.
