The LA5255-D is a Plano-Convex lens with a diameter of 25.4 mm, designed for use in the infrared spectrum with a wavelength of 588 nm. Manufactured by Thorlabs, a leading vendor in the optical industry, this lens is made from Calcium Fluoride (CaF2) material, specifically identified as "caf2 mal-1963".
The lens geometry features an edge thickness of 2 mm and a center thickness of 2.7 mm. The Effective Focal Length (EFL) is 250 mm, making it suitable for applications requiring a longer focal length. The front and back surfaces of the lens are coated with a broadband anti-reflection coating, denoted as "tho d bbar", which enhances transmission and reduces surface reflections.
The lens's shape is spherical, with a radius of curvature (R1) of 108.5 mm on the convex side. The inner and outer radii are both zero, indicating a plano surface on the opposite side. This lens is currently in stock, as indicated by its weblink status, and more information can be found on the Thorlabs website.
