SO-L01 SERIES

K9 Plano-Convex Lens, 350-700 nm AR Coating

SO-L01 A-band plano-convex lenses combine K9 optical glass with a broadband antireflection coating optimized for 350-700 nm. They are a practical choice for visible imaging, white-light illumination, beam collimation and laboratory laser systems where lower surface reflection is needed across most of the visible spectrum.

Product Overview

Configure K9 Plano-Convex Lens, 350-700 nm AR Coating around focal geometry and coating

For a collimated input beam, orient the convex surface toward the incoming beam to reduce spherical aberration. Select the model by clear aperture, effective focal length, back focal length and available mounting depth; the coating is specified as average reflectance below 0.5% over its design band.

Use this A-band version for UV-visible and visible systems operating mainly between 350 and 700 nm. For near-infrared work, select the B-, C- or AB-coated SO-L01 series instead.
