LA1417-B N-BK7 Plano-Convex Lens; Dia:2 in; f=150.0 mm ARC 650-1050nm
The LA1417-B is a Plano-Convex lens, a type of spherical lens, sourced from Thorlabs, a renowned optical components manufacturer. This lens boasts a diameter of 2 inches, or 50.8 millimeters, and a focal length of 150 millimeters, making it suitable for a wide range of optical applications.
The lens is made from N-BK7, a high-quality borosilicate glass commonly used in optical systems due to its excellent optical properties. The front and back surfaces of the lens are coated with a broadband anti-reflection coating, specifically designed for the 650-1050 nanometer range. This coating reduces surface reflections, thereby enhancing the overall transmission of the lens.
The lens's geometry is characterized by its edge thickness of 3 millimeters and center thickness of 7.3 millimeters. The lens's effective focal length (EFL) is 150 millimeters, and its back focal length (BFL) is 144.7 millimeters. The lens's inner and outer radii are both zero, indicating a plano-convex shape.
