This is a LA7753-E3 25.4 mm Dia. ZnSe Plano-Convex Lens, specifically designed for use with a wavelength of 10600 nm and a focal length of 1000 mm. The lens is sourced from Thorlabs, a reputable vendor known for its high-quality optical components.
The lens is spherical in shape, with a base shape of a circle. It has a diameter of 25.4 mm and a thickness of 2 mm at the edge, which increases slightly to 2.1 mm at the center. The lens is made of ZnSe (Zinc Selenide) material, identified by the Material ID "znse connolly".
The lens features a coating on both the front and back surfaces, specifically the "tho e3znsearc7000120" coating. This coating is designed to enhance the lens' performance in the 7-12 µm wavelength range, making it ideal for infrared applications.
The lens's geometry, including its diameter, thickness, and focal length, makes it suitable for a wide range of optical systems. The EFL (Effective Focal Length) of 1000 mm, combined with the lens's diameter and material, allows for efficient light transmission and focus.
