LA4102 UV Fused Silica Plano-Convex Lens; Dia:1 in; f=200.7 mm Uncoated

The LA4102 UV Fused Silica Plano-Convex Lens is a high-quality optical component designed for use in a wide range of applications. Manufactured by Thorlabs, a leading vendor in the field of optical components, this lens boasts a diameter of 1 inch and a focal length of 200.7 mm, making it a versatile choice for many setups.

The lens is made from UV Fused Silica, a material known for its excellent transmission properties across a broad spectrum, including the ultraviolet range. This makes the LA4102 particularly suitable for applications where high transmittance in the UV region is required. The material also exhibits low autofluorescence, making it an ideal choice for fluorescence microscopy and other sensitive detection techniques.

The lens geometry is spherical, with a plano-convex design. The radius of curvature of the convex surface is 92 mm, and the lens has a central thickness of 2.9 mm and an edge thickness of 2 mm. The back focal length is 198.7 mm, and the effective focal length is the same as the focal length, at 200.7 mm. The lens is uncoated, offering a cost-effective solution for applications where coating is not necessary.

The LA4102 is available for purchase through the Thorlabs website, where it is listed as in stock at the time of writing. With its combination of high-quality materials, precise geometry, and versatile specifications, the LA4102 UV Fused Silica Plano-Convex Lens is a reliable and practical choice for a wide range of optical applications.
