Check List for Lenses

Click here to see a check list before buying such products!

Are they available with the required focal length?
Have you checked whether the lens should be biconvex, plano-convex, plano-concave, biconcave, or a meniscus or doublet lens?
Is the numerical aperture sufficiently large?
Is the optical quality high enough? Consider surface quality (e.g. scratch & dig) and wavefront distortions.
Can you use simple spherical surfaces, or do you need aspheric optics, possibly with freeform surfaces?
Do you need achromatic lenses for operation in wide wavelength ranges?
Do you need anti-reflection coatings? Broadband or high-performance narrowband?
For high-power applications: are there thermal effects due to parasitic absorption? How about the optical damage threshold?
How to mount the lenses? Is the holder suitable for application with high-power beams (even if they are misaligned)?

In case that you need additional advice, consultancy from RP Photonics may be the solution.
