The LF7733-F is a high-quality spherical lens from Thorlabs, featuring a concave-convex base shape and a circular geometry. With a diameter of 25.4 mm, this lens is designed for use in the 8-12 µm wavelength range, making it suitable for a variety of infrared applications.
The lens has a negative meniscus design, with a center thickness of 4 mm and an edge thickness of 8 mm. The effective focal length (EFL) is -25.4 mm, indicating that it is a diverging lens. The first and second radii of curvature (R1 and R2) are 31.6 mm and 15.5 mm, respectively, and the back focal length (BFL) is -23.5 mm. The lens does not have an inner or outer radius.
The LF7733-F is made from ZnSe (Zinc Selenide) material, identified as "znse connolly" in the material ID. This material is known for its excellent optical properties, making it a popular choice for infrared applications. The lens is coated with Thorlabs' AR coating for ZnSe, optimized for the 8-12 µm range, on both the front and back surfaces to reduce reflection and increase transmission.
