The AX1240-A is a 12.7 mm diameter Axicon Prism from Thorlabs, a leading global manufacturer of photonics equipment. This Axicon Prism is part of Thorlabs' extensive UVFS (UV Fused Silica) product line, characterized by its high transparency in the UV-VIS-NIR spectrum.
The prism features a plano-convex geometry with a 5 mm thick edge and a 10.3 mm thick center. The base shape is circular, and the axicon has a 0.6981317007977318 alpha angle, making it suitable for a variety of applications. The axicon's convexity is designed to focus or collimate light, which is particularly useful in beam shaping applications.
The AX1240-A is made from UVFS, a material with a high Abbe number, ensuring low dispersion and excellent optical quality. The prism is coated with a broadband anti-reflective coating (AR) optimized for the 350-700nm wavelength range, further enhancing its performance.
