Description

The OPTOMAN PCX-F175-UVFS-25.4-ET2.0-AR548-AR548 is a precision plano-convex laser lens engineered for demanding ultrafast laser applications operating at 1030 nm. Manufactured from premium UV Grade Fused Silica (JGS1), this optical component combines exceptional transmission with extremely low absorption and minimal group delay dispersion (GDD), helping preserve femtosecond and picosecond pulse characteristics.

Its ion beam sputtered (IBS) anti-reflective coating delivers less than 0.1% residual reflectance per surface at 1030 nm while maintaining a high laser-induced damage threshold for reliable operation in high-peak-power laser systems. Featuring a 175 mm focal length, λ/6 surface accuracy, 20-10 scratch-dig quality, and excellent centration, this lens is well suited for precision beam focusing, beam conditioning, and industrial or scientific laser integration.
