The AL100100-B is a high-precision aspheric lens, 100 mm in diameter, manufactured by Thorlabs. This lens is designed for use with a wavelength of 780 nm and features an effective focal length (EFL) of 100 mm and a numerical aperture (NA) of 0.48.
The lens is made from n-BK7 Schott glass, a material known for its excellent optical properties and high damage threshold. The aspheric design of the lens helps to reduce spherical aberration, providing superior image quality compared to traditional spherical lenses.
The lens is CNC polished, ensuring a high level of surface accuracy and smoothness. It features a broadband anti-reflection coating, optimized for the 650-1050 nm range, which reduces surface reflections and increases transmission.
The lens has a center thickness of 36 mm and an edge thickness of 8.4 mm. The front and back surfaces of the lens are coated with the same broadband anti-reflection coating.
This lens is part of Thorlabs' extensive catalog of optical elements and is available for purchase through their website. The current status is "Valid - in stock", indicating that the lens is readily available for immediate shipping.
