The 16-968 is a high-precision aspheric lens, boasting a 40mm diameter and a 0.8 numerical aperture, specifically designed for the visible light spectrum extending from 350 to 700nm. This lens is sourced from Edmund Optics, a renowned vendor known for their quality optical components.
The lens is made from N-SF6 Schott, a high-refractive index glass that allows for superior optical performance. The aspheric design of the lens helps to reduce spherical aberration, a common issue in traditional lenses, resulting in improved image quality and resolution.
The lens has an effective focal length of 25mm, making it suitable for a wide range of applications that require a compact, high-performance lens. The lens thickness at the edge is 2.4mm, while the center thickness is 13.1mm, providing a robust and durable structure.
The lens features a broadband anti-reflection coating, specifically the EDM VISPlus 350-700nm coating, on both the front and back surfaces. This coating enhances the lens's light transmission capabilities, reduces surface reflections, and increases overall system efficiency.
