2つの固定リングSM1RRとスロット付きレンズチューブSM1L30C内のエアスペース型アクロマティック複レンズ

特長

  • エアスペース型の複レンズであるため単レンズよりも優れた収差性能
  • 開口:Ø20 mm
  • Ø25 mm~Ø25.4 mm(Ø1インチ)用レンズチューブ内に収まる25.4 mm (1インチ)の外径
  • 350~700 nm対応のARコーティング

このエアスペース型アクロマティック複レンズは、球面収差や色収差の補正に優れた性能を発揮する設計となっています。エアスペース型複 レンズは接着された複レンズと比較して、内部レンズの曲率面が同じである必要がない分、自由度が2つ増えます。このように設計に自由度があることで、接着された複レンズと比べていくつかの点において非常に優れた特性を実現します。詳細は「レンズの比較」タブ内に掲載されています。エアスペース型設計では、加工工程で接着剤を用いないので、レーザによる損傷に対して高い耐性があります。レンズ両面に350~700 nmの波長範囲でARコーティングが施されていますが、この製品のガラス基板はUV域(<400 mn)においてほとんど透過しません。各エアスペース型複レンズ製品の正確な仕様や透過率のグラフについては下記の各製品の表をご参照ください。

複レンズはアルミニウム製のバレル型マウントに取付け済みですが、バレル径とレンズ径の寸法公差を厳しい数値に設定することで、レンズの偏心を最小限に抑 えています。各マウントには、型番、ARコーティングの波長範囲、焦点距離および点光源をコリメートするための光の伝搬方向が刻印されています。マウントは、Ø25 mm~Ø25.4 mm(Ø1インチ)用レンズチューブ内に収まる25.4 mm(1インチ)の外径となっています(右の写真参照)。

注意: レンズをマウントから取外すことは、性能に影響が出る恐れがあるためお勧め致しません。

Thanks for reaching out to Thorlabs. We have contacted you directly to share a data table format for these plots.

From the plots comparing the cemented and air-spaced doublets it appears that for f=150 and 200mm, there is no clear advantage (from an optical performance perspective) to using an air-spaced doublet over a cemented one. Is there any advantage for these 2 focal lengths in using an air-spaced doublet over a cemented one for imaging application?
besembeson  (posted 2016-02-03 04:41:27.0)
Response from Bweh at Thorlabs USA: For general imaging applications, performance will be very similar for these two doublets. However, if you have a high power level application, the air-spaced doublets will be better suitable.

The transmission Plot of ACA254-100-A shows that high transmission cover the wavelength from 300 nm to 700 nm. Can the transmittance at wavelength between 300 nm t0 350 nm be believed?

Response from Jeremy at Thorlabs: It seems that we made a mistake on these graphs. We will be updating the transmission curves on this page shortly. Thanks for bringing this to our attention.

Could you check the spot radius plots? The plots seem to show larger spot sizes at shorter focal lengths, with sub micron spot sizes available from 150mm and 200mm focal length lenses.

Response from Tim at Thorlabs: These plots were calculated to show the quality of the design using RMS spot radius with respect to the centroid. The performance of the actual lenses will still be limited by diffraction. Some lenses that are theoretically borderline on the diffraction limit can end up being not diffraction limited depending on manufacturing tolerancing. Plotting the theoretical values such as this allow us to see the design and the margin below the diffraction limit. Although the diffraction limit will increase with increasing focal length and with decreasing beam diameters, these lenses will typically have theoretical rms spot sizes that decrease with increasing focal lengths and decreasing beam diameters. In terms of the RMS spot size shown in these plots, yes, we should expect to see smaller spot sizes for longer focal length lenses. However, I believe you were noting the point that if they are diffraction limited, in reality the actual diffraction limited spot size will be larger for longer focal lengths, which is correct. We are discussing how to make these plots more understandable. Thanks for your feedback!

Can you publish zmx files for these lenses? The ZAR files published for some of them are useless in other versions of zemax than were used to create them. My attempts to create my own ZMX files from the data in the table are failing. The specs for ACA254-050-A give a lens with 30mm EFL. I could assume the table is shifted and this is the prescription for ACA254-030-A, but I don't trust the glass table, either.

Response from Tim at Thorlabs: Thank you for your feedback! You are correct. There was a clerical error in the table and we are updating this right now. Supplying both .zar and .zmx is an active project. In the meantime, we can supply these files on request to techsupport@thorlabs.com. I will contact you directly to provide the .zmx versions.

Response from Tim at Thorlabs: Thank you for contacting us. We will update our presentation with these files. In the meantime, I will send you them directly.

Is it possible to get Zemax files for the -A coated doublets?
sharrell  (posted 2012-08-01 12:12:00.0)
Response from Sean at Thorlabs: Thank you for your feedback. You are correct that the focal shift units should be mm. We are in the process of updating those graphs. The link that is present in your feedback is for our -A coated achromats, while these air-spaced doublets feature our -B (650-1050 nm) coating. There is a curve for our -B cemented doublets here: http://thorlabs.com/NewGroupPage9.cfm?ObjectGroup_ID=259 that agrees with the curve on this page. If you are interested in air-spaced doublets with our -A coating (400-700 nm), we will be adding these lenses to our product line within the next two months.

The focal shift data presented here seems inconsistent with the data published elsewhere (http://thorlabs.com/NewGroupPage9.cfm?ObjectGroup_ID=120). Should the focal shift units be mm? Besides the units, there also appears to be a discrepancy in the values.
