The LA4102-UV is a UV Fused Silica Plano-Convex Lens, sourced from the reputable vendor Thorlabs. This lens boasts a diameter of 1 inch and a focal length of 200.7 mm, making it suitable for a wide range of optical applications.
The lens's geometry is characterized by a thickness of 2 mm at the edge and 2.9 mm at the center. The effective focal length (EFL) is 200 mm, while the back focal length (BFL) is 198 mm. The lens's inner and outer radii are both 0, indicating a planoconvex shape.
The lens is made from UV Fused Silica, a material with a high transmission range in the UV spectrum, making it ideal for UV applications. The lens is coated with a UV ARC coating, specifically designed for the 245-400 nm range, further enhancing its performance in UV applications.
The coating is applied to both the front and back surfaces of the lens. This coating helps to reduce surface reflections, thereby increasing the amount of light transmitted through the lens. The coating also provides protection against environmental contaminants and scratches.
