LA1727-C N-BK7 Plano-Convex Lens; Dia:2 in; f=750.0 mm ARC 1050-1700nm
The LA1727-C 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 750 millimeters, making it suitable for a wide range of optical applications.
The lens is made from N-BK7, a popular glass type in the optical industry, known for its excellent optical properties. The Plano-Convex geometry, where one side is flat and the other is curved, allows for efficient light collection and focusing. The lens has a thickness of 3 millimeters at the edge and 3.8 millimeters at the center, providing a robust structure while maintaining a low profile.
The LA1727-C is coated with a broadband anti-reflection coating, specifically designed for the wavelength range of 1050-1700 nanometers. This coating reduces unwanted reflections, enhancing the overall transmission of the lens and improving the system's performance.
