The HO-AX-25-25.0 is a 25 mm diameter Axicon prism, sourced from the renowned optical components manufacturer, Holmarc Opto-Mechatronics. This axicon features a unique plano-convex geometry, with a thickness of 5 mm at the edge and 10.8 mm at the center, making it an ideal choice for a wide range of optical applications.
The axicon has an apex angle (alpha) of approximately 0.4363 radians (or 25 degrees), which is a crucial parameter in determining the beam shaping capabilities of the axicon. The convexity of the axicon is towards the incident beam, a characteristic that enhances its focusing efficiency.
The axicon is made from UVFS material, specifically UVFS Mal-1965, which is known for its excellent optical properties. The material has a refractive index that is optimized for a wavelength of 587.6 nm, ensuring optimal performance in the visible light spectrum.
Notably, the axicon is uncoated, which means it does not have any additional layers of anti-reflective or other coatings. While this may affect its transmission efficiency slightly, it also makes the axicon more versatile, as it can be used in a wider range of environments without the risk of coating damage.
The axicon is currently in stock and available for immediate purchase. For more information, please refer to the Holmarc Opto-Mechatronics website, where you can find detailed specifications, pricing, and other related products.
