LB1014-A N-BK7 Bi-Convex Lens; Dia:0.5 in; f=25.0 mm ARC 350-700nm
The LB1014-A is a high-quality bi-convex lens, designed and manufactured by Thorlabs, a leading global supplier of photonics equipment. This lens, with a diameter of 0.5 inches, is fabricated from N-BK7, a popular glass type known for its excellent optical properties, making it an ideal choice for various applications.
The lens features a focal length of 25.0 mm, which is the distance from the center of the lens to the point where light rays converge or diverge. This focal length, combined with the lens's diameter, allows for a wide range of applications, including imaging, beam shaping, and focusing.
The LB1014-A is coated with ARC 350-700nm, a broadband anti-reflection coating that reduces reflection across the visible spectrum. This coating enhances the lens's performance by increasing transmission and reducing unwanted reflections, thereby improving image quality and reducing light loss.
The lens's geometry includes a central thickness of 3.4 mm and an edge thickness of 1.8 mm, providing robustness and durability. The lens's spherical shape ensures excellent optical performance, with minimal aberrations.
