The LA1085-A is a high-quality plano-convex lens from Thorlabs, designed for use in a wide range of optical applications. This lens is made from N-BK7 glass, a popular material known for its excellent optical properties and high damage threshold. The lens has a diameter of 18.0 mm and a focal length of 30.0 mm, making it suitable for use in systems where a long focal length is required.
The lens features an anti-reflection coating, designed to reduce surface reflections and increase transmission in the 350-700 nm spectral range. This coating is applied to both the front and back surfaces of the lens, ensuring high-quality performance and minimal loss of light.
The geometry of the lens is designed for ease of use and integration into optical systems. The lens has a thickness of 1.8 mm at the edge and 4.7 mm at the center, providing a robust and stable platform for optical systems. The lens also features a spherical shape, with a radius of curvature of 15.5 mm on the curved surface. This shape ensures a wide field of view and low distortion, making it ideal for imaging applications.
