AX1240 12.7 mm Dia. UVFS Plano-Convex Axicon Prism; 5 mm Uncoated

The AX1240 is a 12.7 mm diameter Axicon Prism, part of the UVFS material family, with a catalog number AX1240, sourced from the reputable vendor Thorlabs. This Axicon Prism is designed with a unique geometry, featuring a 5 mm thickness at the edge and a 10.3 mm thickness at the center, making it a plano-convex structure. The axicon angle (alpha) is 0.6981317007977318 radians, providing a precise curvature for specific optical applications.

The Axicon Prism is a specialized optical element, often used for generating Bessel beams or for beam shaping in various laser applications. Its unique design allows for a high numerical aperture and a tight focus, making it ideal for applications such as laser material processing, beam collimation, and optical manipulation.

Please note that this particular Axicon Prism is uncoated, which means it does not have any additional layers to enhance or alter its optical properties. This can be beneficial in certain applications where minimal reflection or dispersion is required. However, for applications where specific reflective or transmissive properties are needed, consider exploring coated options.

The AX1240 is designed to work optimally with a wavelength of 532 nm, making it suitable for a wide range of applications in the visible light spectrum.
