The LB4096-C is a high-quality UV Fused Silica Bi-Convex Lens, sourced from the reputable vendor Thorlabs. This lens boasts a diameter of 1 inch (25.4 mm) and a focal length of 50.0 mm, making it suitable for a wide range of optical applications.
The lens features a base shape of a circle, with a center thickness of 5.7 mm and an edge thickness of 1.8 mm. The effective focal length (EFL) is 50 mm, while the back focal length (BFL) is 48 mm. The radii of curvature for the first and second surfaces are 45.1 mm and -45.1 mm, respectively.
This lens is crafted from UV Fused Silica, a material with a high damage threshold and excellent transmission properties across a wide spectral range, from 190 nm to 2100 nm. The lens is coated with a broadband anti-reflection coating, optimized for the 1050-1700 nm range, which further enhances its performance.
The coating on both the front and back surfaces is Thorlabs' BBAR coating, designed to reduce surface reflections and improve transmission. The lens is spherical in shape, ensuring excellent image quality and minimal optical aberrations.
