32-016 9mm Dia. x 13.5mm FL Uncoated; Double-Convex Lens
The 32-016 9mm Dia. x 13.5mm FL Uncoated; Double-Convex Lens is a high-quality optical component sourced from Edmund Optics. This lens, with its spherical geometry, is designed for use in a wide range of optical applications.
The lens features a base shape of a circle, with a diameter of 9mm, making it suitable for use in compact optical systems. The edge thickness of the lens is 1.2mm, while the center thickness is 2.75mm, providing a robust structure that can withstand typical handling and usage.
The effective focal length (EFL) of this lens is 13.5mm, a critical specification that determines the lens's focusing power. The first radius of curvature (R1) is 13.46mm, and the second radius of curvature (R2) is -13.46mm, indicating a double-convex lens design. The back focal length (BFL) is 12.56mm, which is the distance from the lens's rear surface to its focal point.
The lens is made from n-BK7 Schott, a popular optical glass known for its excellent optical properties and versatility. The lens is uncoated, meaning it does not have any anti-reflective or other surface coatings. This may be suitable for applications where such coatings are not required or desirable.
The lens is designed to operate at a wavelength of 587.6nm, a common visible light wavelength. It is important to note that the lens's performance may vary at other wavelengths.
