The LA5200 is a Plano-Convex lens with a diameter of 50.8 mm, sourced from Thorlabs. This lens is designed for use in the visible spectrum, with a specified wavelength of 588 nm. The Plano-Convex design features a flat surface on one side and a curved surface on the other, with a center thickness of 3.7 mm and an edge thickness of 3 mm.
The lens is made from Calcium Fluoride (CaF2), a material with a high transmission range spanning from the ultraviolet to the infrared regions. This makes the LA5200 suitable for a wide range of applications that require high-performance optics. The lens has an effective focal length (EFL) of 1000 mm, which is the distance from the center of the lens to the focal point where light rays converge.
The LA5200 is uncoated, meaning it does not have any additional layers to enhance its optical properties. While coatings can improve characteristics such as transmission, reflection, and scratch resistance, an uncoated lens can be advantageous in certain applications where specific coating properties are not required.
