LA2024 2 mm Dia. N-SF11 Plano-Convex Lens; EFL=4mm Uncoated
The LA2024 is a Plano-Convex spherical lens, part of Thorlabs' extensive catalog of optical elements. This lens boasts a 2 mm diameter and a center thickness of 1 mm, with the edge thickness measuring 0.8 mm. The effective focal length (EFL) of this lens is 4 mm, making it suitable for a variety of applications.
The lens is made of N-SF11 Schott glass, a popular material in the optical industry due to its high refractive index and low dispersion. This makes the LA2024 particularly suitable for applications that require high precision and minimal chromatic aberration.
The lens is uncoated, meaning it does not have any additional layers to enhance its optical properties. While this may limit its performance in high-intensity or high-precision applications, it can be advantageous in applications where cost or simplicity are primary considerations.
The LA2024 is currently in stock, according to Thorlabs' website. This, along with its compact size and versatile material, makes it a convenient and practical choice for a wide range of optical systems.
