The LD1613-C is a high-quality bi-concave lens offered by Thorlabs, a leading vendor in the optical industry. This lens, designed with a spherical shape, is specifically crafted from N-BK7 Schott glass, a material well-known for its excellent optical properties.
The lens boasts a diameter of 25.4 mm and a thickness of 5.6 mm at the edge, reducing to 4 mm at the center. The bi-concave design, characterized by radii of curvature of -103.7 mm and 103.7 mm for the front and back surfaces, respectively, results in a back focal length of -101 mm. This configuration provides a focal length of -100 mm, making it suitable for a wide range of applications.
The lens features anti-reflection coatings on both the front and back surfaces, designed to operate within the wavelength range of 1050-1700 nm. These coatings are crucial for minimizing surface reflections and enhancing overall transmission, thereby optimizing the performance of the lens in its intended application.
