UV FUSED SILICA BICONCAVE LENSES
Spherical biconcave lenses of fused silica are mostly used for UV monochromatic lights. Fused silica has almost same performance of transmittance with BK7 in visual and near IR, but has higher performance than BK7 in UV.These lenses have negative focal lengths and are used when parallel beams are diverged.
The lenses are polished carefully by selecting materials (striae, bubbles, inclusions, and homogeneity) and paying attention to dispersion (digs, scratches, and glosses) to prevent troubles with coherent light.
Uncoated and coated with broadband multilayer AR coatings for visible are available.

| NOTES! |
|
 |
Focal lengths of these lenses change as the shifts of refractive indexes of the material according to wavelength. (In the short wavelength range, the refractive index is higher and the focal length is shorter. In the long wavelength range, the refractive index is lower and the focal length is longer.) |
|
The edge thicknesses fare theoretical values not including chamfer. |
|
Be sure to wear laser safety goggles when checking optical path and adjusting optical axis. |
