The BICV-FS16 is a high-precision double-concave lens, characterized by its spherical shape and circular base. This lens, sourced from WTS Photonics, boasts a diameter of 25.4 mm and a center thickness of 2 mm, with an edge thickness of 2.58 mm. The lens is designed with a base focal length (BFL) of 300.68 mm and an effective focal length (EFL) of -300 mm, making it suitable for applications that require concave-concave lenses.
The lens is constructed from fused silica, a material with the material ID "fused sil mal-1965". This material is known for its excellent transparency and resistance to thermal shock, making it an ideal choice for optical applications. The lens is uncoated, meaning it does not have any additional layers to enhance its optical properties or protect it from environmental factors.
The BICV-FS16 is designed to operate at a wavelength of 546.1 nm. It's important to note that the lens's performance may vary depending on the wavelength and the specific conditions of its application. Therefore, it's recommended to consult with the vendor or a qualified optical engineer before making a final decision.
