The 32-006 12.0mm Dia. x 18.0mm FL Uncoated; Plano-Convex Lens is a high-quality optical component sourced from Edmund Optics. This lens, with a diameter of 12.0mm, is designed to provide excellent optical performance. The lens has a focal length of 18.0mm, making it suitable for a wide range of optical applications.
The lens is uncoated, which means it does not have any anti-reflective or other coatings. This can be advantageous in certain applications where the uncoated surface is required. However, it's important to note that uncoated lenses can have higher reflectivity, which may affect the overall system performance.
The lens geometry is spherical, with a plano-convex shape. The center thickness of the lens is 3.0mm, while the edge thickness is 1.41mm. The inner and outer radii are both 0mm, indicating a flat surface on one side and a curved surface on the other. The back focal length (BFL) is 16.22mm, and the effective focal length (EFL) is 18.0mm.
The lens is made from n-SF5 Schott, a high-quality optical glass known for its excellent optical properties. The lens is designed to work at a wavelength of 587.6nm.
