The LA1608-C is a plano-convex lens, a type of spherical lens, featuring a circular base shape and a diameter of 1 inch (25.4 mm). This lens is sourced from Thorlabs, a renowned vendor in the optical industry. The lens's geometry includes a thickness of 2 mm at the edge and 4.1 mm at the center, with an effective focal length (EFL) of 75 mm. The front radius of curvature (R1) is 38.6 mm, and the back focal length (BFL) is 72 mm.
This lens is made of n-BK7, a popular glass type in the optical industry, from the Schott glass catalog. The wavelength for this lens is 587.6 nm. The lens features anti-reflection (AR) coating on both the front and back surfaces, specifically the "tho c bbar" coating, which is designed for the wavelength range of 1050-1700 nm. This coating helps to minimize surface reflections, thereby increasing the amount of light transmitted through the lens.
