BestForm Laser Lenses
OFR manufactures and maintains in stock its series of BestForm Laser Lenses. These are designed for minimum spherical aberration, and when not exceeding optimum beam diameter (see table below), will produce focal spots within diffraction-limit theory. These lenses can be used interchangeably for focusing, expanding or collimating.

Surface Quality
Polish exceeds 10-5 and sphericity better than 1/10-wave over the aperture at the design wavelength. All lenses are polished to the highest spherical figure and fineness consistent with optimum performance in all respects: minimum blur-circle, minimum wavefront distortion, minimum scattering loss, and maximum transmittance of energy.

Antireflection Coatings
All lenses are available with narrow-band or broadband antireflection coatings peaked for the major wavelength of operation, at which transmittance will exceed 99%. When ordering, add wavelength (in nm) as final dash number in Catalog Part Number. For example, LL-25-63-633, etc.

BestForm Laser Lenses are designed with minimum aberration ratio of the radii of both surfaces.

Thickness ± 0.1 mm

LASER LENSES, 193 nm
OFR manufactures 193 nm Laser Lenses in two excimer-grades, CaF2 and fused silica. OFR feels that optical performance of either type should be equivalent. However, in spite of significant improvements in materials since the arrival of the ArF laser, limited performance data leave questions unanswered. Therefore, the choice of CaF2 or fused silica is open to interpretation. Please discuss with OFR.
