The LA1102-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 due to its excellent optical properties and high Abbe number, making it an ideal choice for applications that require high precision and low dispersion.
The lens has a diameter of 30.0 mm and a focal length of 50.0 mm, providing a beam divergence that is suitable for many applications. The lens is designed with a spherical surface, which helps to minimize spherical aberration and ensures that the lens delivers high-quality, distortion-free images.
The LA1102-A is coated with Thorlabs' ARC coating, which is designed to reduce reflection and increase transmission across the visible spectrum (350-700nm). This coating helps to improve the overall efficiency of the lens and reduces the need for additional anti-reflection components in your setup.
The lens has a thickness of 2.5 mm at the edge and 7.3 mm at the center, providing a robust and durable design that can withstand the rigors of daily use. The lens is also easy to clean and maintain, thanks to its smooth, non-porous surface.
