The LA1805 N-BK7 Plano-Convex Lens is a high-quality optical component sourced from Thorlabs. This lens, with a diameter of 1 inch (25.4 mm), is designed for use at a wavelength of 587.6 nm. The lens features a plano-convex shape, meaning one side is flat while the other is curved, which is advantageous for a variety of applications.
The lens's geometry includes a thickness of 2 mm at the edge and 8.6 mm at the center. The effective focal length (EFL) is 30 mm, and the radius of curvature (R1) is 15.5 mm. The back focal length (BFL) is 24.2 mm, and both the inner and outer radii are 0 mm, indicating a flat inner surface and a curved outer surface.
The lens is made of N-BK7, a type of borosilicate glass manufactured by Schott. This material is known for its excellent optical properties, making it a popular choice for many applications. The lens is uncoated, meaning it does not have any additional layers to enhance its optical properties. However, uncoated lenses can still provide high-quality performance, especially in applications where specific coatings are not required.
