LB4265-B UV Fused Silica Bi-Convex Lens; Dia:1 in; f=150.0 mm ARC 650-1050nm
The LB4265-B is a high-quality bi-convex lens, designed and manufactured by Thorlabs, a leading vendor in the optical industry. This lens boasts a diameter of 1 inch (25.4 mm) and a focal length of 150.0 mm, making it suitable for a wide range of optical applications.
The lens is made from UV fused silica, a material known for its excellent transmission properties across a broad spectrum, from 190 to 2000 nm. This makes the LB4265-B particularly suitable for applications that require high transmission in the ultraviolet region, such as UV spectroscopy or fluorescence microscopy.
The lens features a spherical geometry, with radii of curvature of 137.5 mm for both the front and back surfaces. This design results in an effective focal length (EFL) of 150.0 mm and a back focal length (BFL) of 148.9 mm. The lens has a central thickness of 3.2 mm and an edge thickness of 2 mm, providing robustness and durability.
The LB4265-B is coated with Thorlabs' BBAR coating, which is designed to minimize reflection and maximize transmission across the 650-1050 nm range. This coating ensures high-quality performance and reduces the need for additional anti-reflection components in your optical setup.
