The LA4306-YAG 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 and a focal length of 40 mm, is designed for use with wavelengths of 532 nm and 1064 nm, making it suitable for a wide range of applications in the fields of lasers and optics.
The lens is made of UVFS material, which is known for its excellent optical properties and durability. It features a plano-convex geometry, where one side is flat and the other is curved, which is ideal for focusing or collimating light. The lens has a center thickness of 7.1 mm and an edge thickness of 2 mm, providing a robust structure that can withstand rigorous use.
The LA4306-YAG UVFS Plano-Convex Lens is coated with YAG Silica VC 532/1064nm on both the front and back surfaces. This coating enhances the lens's performance by reducing reflection and increasing transmission, thereby improving the overall efficiency of the optical system.
The lens has an effective focal length (EFL) of 40.1 mm, which is the distance from the lens's center to the focal point when the lens is used in air. The front radius of curvature (R1) is 18.4 mm, and the back focal length (BFL) is 35.3 mm. The lens has no inner or outer radius, indicating a uniform curvature across its surface.
