The LB4223 UV Fused Silica Bi-Convex Lens is a high-quality optical component sourced from Thorlabs. This lens, with a diameter of 1 inch, is designed for use at a focal length of 750.0 mm, making it suitable for a wide range of applications that require precise optical manipulation.
The lens is made of UV Fused Silica, a material known for its excellent transmission properties across a broad spectrum, including the ultraviolet range. This makes the LB4223 an ideal choice for applications that involve UV light. The lens is uncoated, which means it does not have any additional layers to enhance its optical properties. However, this also means that it is less susceptible to damage from environmental factors.
The geometry of the lens is spherical, with a center thickness of 2.2 mm and an edge thickness of 2 mm. The radii of curvature for the first and second surfaces are 689.8 mm and -689.8 mm, respectively. The effective focal length (EFL) is 750 mm, and the back focal length (BFL) is 749.2 mm. The lens does not have any inner or outer radius, indicating a uniform thickness.
The lens is available in the UVFS MAL-1965 material grade. It is designed to work with a wavelength of 588 nm. The lens is of the Spherical Lens (Convex-Convex) subtype and has a circular base shape.
