The LA4663-UV is a UV Fused Silica Plano-Convex Lens, a high-quality optical component designed for use in the ultraviolet spectrum. This lens, sourced from the reputable vendor Thorlabs, boasts a diameter of 1 inch and a focal length of 1003.5 mm, making it suitable for a wide range of applications.
The lens is designed with a spherical shape, featuring a plano-convex geometry. This design, characterized by a flat front surface and a curved back surface, allows for efficient light collection and focusing. The lens has an outer radius of 0 and an inner radius of 0, further enhancing its optical performance.
The LA4663-UV is constructed from UV Fused Silica, a material known for its excellent transmission properties in the UV range. This material ensures high-quality performance, particularly in applications where UV light is involved. The lens has a thickness of 2 mm at the edge and 2.2 mm at the center, providing a robust and durable structure.
The lens is coated with a UV ARC coating, specifically designed for the wavelength range of 245-400 nm. This coating enhances the lens's performance by reducing surface reflections and improving transmission. The coating is applied to both the front and back surfaces of the lens, ensuring optimal performance from all angles.
