The 11-711 is a high-performance plano-convex lens, boasting a 12.7mm diameter and a focal length of 50mm. This lens is sourced from Edmund Optics, a trusted vendor known for its extensive catalog of optical elements. The lens is uncoated, offering a cost-effective solution for applications where coating is not a necessity.
The lens's geometry is characterized by a thickness of 0.61mm at the edge and 1.5mm at the center, providing a balanced profile for efficient light transmission. The inner and outer radii are both zero, indicating a uniform curvature across the lens surface. The back focal length (BFL) is 49.03mm, and the effective focal length (EFL) is 50mm, which are crucial specifications for designing optical systems.
The lens material is UVFS Mal-1965, a unique material with specific refractive index and dispersion properties. The lens is designed to operate at a wavelength of 587.6nm, making it suitable for applications in the visible light spectrum.
