2-10mm Diamter Ball Lenses for Telecom1

A Ball Lens consists of a highly transparent spherical ball, usually made of solid glass (fused silica) or another optical material with index of refraction less than. Most ball lenses are made with small diameters - a few millimeters or even less than a millimeter.  The optical physics can be understood by realizing these lenses are, equivalently, two plano-convex lenses separated by a parallel plane. Spherical aberration is inherent in all ball lenses, but becomes a problem if light propagation isn't restricted to a small fraction of the lenses cross-section.  The ratio of the diameter of the ball lens and the diameter of the input source is denoted as d/D, and when this number increases, the focus spot size at the back focal length of the lens also increases.
