The AL100100-C is a high-precision aspheric lens, manufactured by Thorlabs, boasting a diameter of 100 mm and a focal length of 100 mm. This lens is crafted from n-BK7 Schott, a high-quality optical glass, and features a CNC-polished surface for superior optical performance.
The lens's design includes an inner radius of 0 mm and an outer radius of 0 mm, with a center thickness of 36 mm and an edge thickness of 8.4 mm. The aspheric surface is defined by a series of coefficients, including k1 (-1.023), k2 (0), a2 front (0), a4 front (4.4278927e-07), a6 front (2.8715019e-11), a8 front (1.9201195e-15), a10 front (9.2124803e-20), and a12 front (-1.6052264e-24), a14 front (-5.8638374e-28), a16 front (-3.0821914e-31). These coefficients contribute to the lens's high-precision performance.
The lens's numerical aperture (NA) is 0.48, indicating a wide acceptance angle and high light-gathering capability. The lens is coated with a broadband anti-reflective coating, optimized for the 1050-1700 nm range, enhancing its transmission capabilities.
This lens is ideal for applications requiring high-precision, high-transmission optics, such as imaging systems, beam shaping, and laser applications. The lens's robust construction and high-quality materials ensure long-term reliability and performance.
