46-224 0.40 mm Dia. Ruby Doped Sapphire Ball Lenses Uncoated
The 46-224 is a 0.40 mm diameter Ruby Doped Sapphire Ball Lens, uncoated, available from Edmund Optics. This lens is a type of Ball Lens, characterized by its circular base shape and spherical geometry. The lens has a diameter of 0.40 mm, with no inner or outer radius specified, indicating a symmetrical spherical design.
The lens is made from Al2O3 (Sapphire), specifically Ruby Doped Sapphire, a material with a Mal-1972-N-O Material ID. This material is known for its high strength, hardness, and resistance to wear and corrosion, making it suitable for a wide range of optical applications.
The lens is designed to operate at a wavelength of 587.6 nm. It is uncoated, meaning it does not have any additional layers applied to its surface to alter its optical properties. This can make the lens more susceptible to environmental factors such as dust and moisture, but it can also result in a more cost-effective solution.
The lens is currently in stock and can be purchased directly from the Edmund Optics website. For more information, including pricing and availability, please refer to the provided weblink.
