BICX-25.4/102.4UV 25.4 mm Dia. x 100 mm FL; Uncoated; Double-Convex Lens

This product is a double-convex lens, also known as a biconvex lens, offered by Laser Components. The lens has a diameter of 25.4 mm and a focal length of 100 mm, making it suitable for a variety of applications. The lens is uncoated, which means it does not have any additional layers to enhance its optical properties.

The lens is made of fused silica, specifically identified as "fused sil mal-1965" in the item data. This material is known for its high transparency and resistance to thermal shock, making it an excellent choice for optical applications. The lens's geometry includes an inner radius of 0 mm and an outer radius of 0 mm, indicating a symmetrical design.

The lens's thickness at the edge is 1.9 mm, while the thickness at the center is 3.5 mm. This variation in thickness is due to the lens's double-convex shape, where the center is thicker than the edges. The lens's design is circular, which is a common shape for optical elements due to its isotropic properties.

The lens is designed to work with a wavelength of 248 nm. This specificity in wavelength suggests that this lens is intended for use in specialized applications, such as laser systems or spectroscopy.
