LA4052-A UVFS Plano-Convex Lens; Dia:1 in; f=35 mm ARC 350-700nm
The LA4052-A UVFS Plano-Convex Lens is a high-quality optical component sourced from Thorlabs, a leading vendor in the field of optical equipment. This lens, with a diameter of 1 inch, is designed for use in the wavelength range of 350-700nm, making it suitable for a wide range of applications.
The lens is spherical in shape, with a base shape of circular. It features a plano-convex geometry, which means one side is flat (plano) and the other side is curved (convex). This geometry is often used to focus or collimate light in various optical systems. The lens has a center thickness of 8.2mm and an edge thickness of 1.9mm, providing a robust structure while maintaining a relatively lightweight design.
The LA4052-A lens has an effective focal length (EFL) of 35.1mm, a front radius (R1) of 16.1mm, and a back focal length (BFL) of 29.5mm. These parameters are crucial for determining the lens's performance in a given optical system. The lens is made from UVFS material with the Mal-1965 index, ensuring high transmittance and low absorption in the specified wavelength range.
The lens is coated with THo A Bbar on both the front and back surfaces. This anti-reflection coating is designed to reduce surface reflections, thereby increasing the amount of light transmitted through the lens. The coating is specifically designed for the wavelength range of 350-700nm, ensuring optimal performance in its intended use.
