Spherical biconvex lenses of BK7 are mostly used for monochromatic lights, such as laser beams or Fraunhofer lines. They are useful when lights from point sources are converged or images are relayed to other optical systems.
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. |
