LA1576-C N-BK7 Plano-Convex Lens; Dia:9.0 mm; f=12.0 mm ARC 1050-1700nm
The LA1576-C is a high-quality plano-convex lens from Thorlabs, designed for use in a wide range of optical applications. This lens is fabricated from N-BK7, a popular glass type known for its excellent optical properties, making it an ideal choice for applications that require high-performance optics.
The lens features a diameter of 9.0 mm and a focal length of 12.0 mm, providing a compact and efficient solution for your optical needs. The plano-convex design, where one side is flat and the other is curved, offers a variety of benefits, including a larger clear aperture and reduced spherical aberration.
The LA1576-C is coated with Thorlabs' ARC coating, which is designed to operate in the 1050-1700nm wavelength range. This coating enhances the lens's performance by reducing surface reflections, thereby improving transmission and overall system efficiency.
The lens has a thickness of 1.5 mm at the edge and 3.4 mm at the center, providing a robust and durable design. The inner and outer radii are 0 mm, indicating a flat inner surface and a curved outer surface.
