The 11-716 is a high-quality Plano-Convex spherical lens, sourced from the renowned optical components vendor, Edmund Optics. This lens boasts a 12.7mm diameter and a focal length of 200mm, making it suitable for a wide range of applications that require precise optical focusing.
The lens is fabricated from UVFS MAL-1965, a material known for its excellent optical properties. The base shape of the lens is circular, and it features a thickness of 1.28mm at the edge, gradually increasing to 1.5mm at the center. This design ensures efficient light transmission while minimizing optical aberrations.
The lens is uncoated, which means it does not have any anti-reflective or other surface coatings. While this may result in a higher reflectivity index compared to coated lenses, it also means that the lens is less susceptible to damage and contamination, making it a durable choice for harsh environments.
The 11-716 lens is designed to work with a wavelength of 587.6nm, which falls within the visible light spectrum. This makes it suitable for applications that involve visible light, such as imaging, laser systems, and metrology.
