The LA4380-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 a wide range of applications, particularly those requiring a focal length of 100.3 mm.
The lens is spherical in shape, with a base shape of a circle. It features a plano-convex geometry, which means one side is flat (plano) and the other side is curved (convex). The thickness at the edge of the lens is 2 mm, while the thickness at the center is 3.8 mm. The effective focal length (EFL) of this lens is 100.3 mm, and the back focal length (BFL) is 97.7 mm. The inner and outer radii are 0, indicating a uniform curvature.
The LA4380-A lens is made from UVFS material, specifically identified as UVFS mal- 1965 in the item data. This material is suitable for use in the ultraviolet, visible, and near-infrared regions of the spectrum. The lens is coated with ARC 350-700nm on both the front and back surfaces, which enhances its transmission capabilities within the specified wavelength range.
