The LA4337-UV is a UV Fused Silica Plano-Convex Lens, sourced from the reputable vendor Thorlabs. This lens boasts a diameter of 2 inches and a focal length of 1003.5 mm, making it a versatile choice for a variety of optical applications.
The lens's geometry is characterized by a thickness of 3 mm at the edge and 3.7 mm at the center, with an effective focal length (EFL) of 1000 mm. The radius of curvature (R1) is 460.1 mm, and the back focal length (BFL) is 997.5 mm. The lens's inner and outer radii are both 0, indicating a planar surface on one side and a curved surface on the other.
The lens is made from UV Fused Silica, a material with a high transmission range in the UV spectrum, making it ideal for applications that require UV light transmission. The lens is coated with a UV ARC coating, specifically designed for the 245-400 nm range, further enhancing its UV transmission capabilities.
This lens is a Spherical Lens of the Plano-Convex type, featuring a flat surface on one side and a curved surface on the other. The curvature of the lens is designed to focus light, making it suitable for use in imaging systems, beam shaping, and other applications where light focusing is required.
