LA4924-C UVFS Plano-Convex Lens; Dia:1 in; f=175 mm ARC 1050-1700nm
The LA4924-C 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 the ultraviolet to shortwave infrared spectrum, specifically between 1050nm and 1700nm.
The lens features a plano-convex geometry, meaning one side is flat while the other is curved. The curvature of the lens is spherical, with a radius of 80.5mm. This shape allows for efficient light collection and focusing, making it suitable for a wide range of optical applications.
The LA4924-C has a focal length of 175.6mm, as determined by its effective focal length (EFL). This length is a critical parameter in lens selection, as it directly influences the magnification and field of view of the optical system.
The lens is made from UVFS, a material with a refractive index optimized for the ultraviolet to shortwave infrared spectrum. This material is identified as "uvfs mal- 1965" in the item data.
The LA4924-C is coated with a broadband anti-reflection coating (ARC), specifically designed for the 1050-1700nm range. This coating reduces surface reflections, improving light transmission through the lens.
