LA1608-B N-BK7 Plano-Convex Lens; Dia:1 in; f=75.0 mm ARC 650-1050nm
The LA1608-B 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, a popular glass type known for its excellent optical properties, and is specifically designed for use in the 650-1050nm wavelength range.
The lens has a diameter of 1 inch (25.4mm) and a focal length of 75mm, making it a versatile choice for many setups. The plano-convex design features a flat front surface and a curved back surface with a radius of curvature of 38.6mm. This design, combined with the lens's thickness of 2mm at the edge and 4.1mm at the center, results in a back focal length of 72mm.
The LA1608-B is coated with Thorlabs' BBAR coating on both the front and back surfaces, which reduces reflection and increases transmission in the 650-1050nm range. This coating, along with the lens's high-quality N-BK7 glass, ensures excellent optical performance.
