LB1406-C N-BK7 Bi-Convex Lens; Dia:6.0 mm; f=12.0 mm ARC 1050-1700nm
The LB1406-C is a high-quality bi-convex lens from Thorlabs, featuring a spherical design and a circular base shape. This lens is constructed from N-BK7 glass, a popular material in the optical industry due to its excellent optical properties and versatility. The lens has a diameter of 6.0 mm and a thickness of 1.5 mm at the edge, while the center thickness measures 4.6 mm.
The lens's effective focal length (EFL) is 500 mm, and it has a front radius of curvature (R1) of 12.0 mm and a back radius of curvature (R2) of -12.0 mm. The back focal length (BFL) is 11.2 mm. The lens is designed to operate at a wavelength of 633 nm.
The LB1406-C is coated with a broadband anti-reflection coating (ARC) that covers the wavelength range of 1050-1700 nm, enhancing its performance in various applications. This coating reduces surface reflections, thereby increasing transmission and improving overall system efficiency.
The lens is available for purchase directly from Thorlabs, and as per the vendor's website, it is currently in stock. This lens is suitable for a wide range of applications, including but not limited to imaging systems, beam shaping, and laser applications.
