LB4910-C UV Fused Silica Bi-Convex Lens; Dia:2 in; f=500.0 mm ARC 1050-1700nm

The LB4910-C 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 2 inches, making it suitable for a wide range of applications. The lens features a focal length of 500.0 mm, which is ideal for focusing light to a small spot or for imaging distant objects.

The lens is made of UV fused silica, a material known for its excellent optical properties and durability. This material is particularly suitable for applications involving ultraviolet light, as it has a high transmission in this region of the spectrum. The lens also features an anti-reflective coating, designed to reduce losses due to reflection and to increase the overall transmission of the lens.

The coating is broadband, covering the wavelength range from 1050 to 1700 nm. This makes the lens suitable for a wide range of applications, including those involving near-infrared light. The lens is spherical, with radii of curvature of 459.4 mm for both the front and back surfaces. This shape ensures a wide field of view and low distortion, making the lens ideal for imaging applications.

The lens has a central thickness of 4.4 mm and an edge thickness of 3 mm. This ensures rigidity and resistance to deformation, even under high optical powers. The lens is also available in stock, ensuring quick delivery and minimal downtime.
