32-008 9.0mm Dia. x 18.0mm FL Plano-Convex Lens Uncoated
The 32-008 9.0mm Dia. x 18.0mm FL Plano-Convex Lens Uncoated is a high-quality optical component sourced from Edmund Optics. This lens, with a diameter of 9.0mm, is designed for use in a variety of optical systems, offering a focal length of 18.0mm and a shape that is both spherical and plano-convex.
The lens's geometry is meticulously crafted, with a thickness at the edge of 1.25mm and a center thickness of 2.41mm. The effective focal length (EFL) is 18.0mm, and the radius of curvature (R1) is 9.32mm. The back focal length (BFL) is 16.41mm, and both the inner and outer radii are 0mm.
This lens is made from n-BK7 Schott, a highly transparent material often used in optical systems due to its excellent homogeneity and low auto-fluorescence. The wavelength for this lens is 587.6nm.
Notably, this lens is uncoated, meaning it does not have any anti-reflective or other coatings applied to its surface. This can be beneficial in certain applications where specific coatings may interfere with the desired optical properties. However, it's important to note that uncoated lenses can have higher levels of surface reflection, which may need to be considered in the overall system design.
