The LA4600-UV is a UV fused silica plano-convex lens, available from Thorlabs, offering a diameter of 0.5 inches and a focal length of 100.3 mm. This lens is designed for use in the ultraviolet spectrum, specifically between 245-400 nm, as indicated by its anti-reflective (AR) coating.
The lens features a base shape of a circle, with a geometry that includes a 12.7 mm diameter, a 1.8 mm edge thickness, and a 2.2 mm center thickness. The effective focal length (EFL) is 100 mm, while the back focal length (BFL) measures 98.5 mm. The inner and outer radii are both 0, and the lens has a spherical shape.
The LA4600-UV's material ID is UVFS MAL-1965, and it is designed to work with a wavelength of 587.6 nm. The lens's coating includes a UV UV ARC 245-400 nm coating on both the front and back surfaces, further enhancing its performance in the UV spectrum.
