The LA1464-C is a plano-convex lens with a diameter of 1 inch, designed for use in the 1050-1700nm wavelength range. Manufactured by Thorlabs, a leading vendor in the field of optical components, this lens is made from N-BK7, a popular type of borosilicate glass known for its excellent optical properties.
The lens features a focal length of 1000mm, making it suitable for applications that require a long focal length. The plano-convex design, where one side is flat and the other is curved, allows for efficient light collection and focusing. The lens has a thickness of 2mm at the edge and 2.2mm at the center, providing a robust structure while maintaining a low profile.
The LA1464-C is coated with Thorlabs' proprietary broadband anti-reflection coating, which is designed to reduce surface reflections and increase transmission in the 1050-1700nm range. This coating enhances the lens's performance in infrared applications, making it an ideal choice for systems operating in this spectral region.
