The 32-747 is an 8.00 mm diameter Ball Lens made from N-BK7 glass, a popular material in optical systems due to its excellent optical properties. This lens, sourced from Edmund Optics, is uncoated, providing a simple and cost-effective solution for various applications.
The Ball Lens, also known as a plano-convex lens, has a base shape of Circular, with a diameter of 8.00 mm. The lens's geometry is defined by its inner radius and outer radius, both of which are 0 in this case, indicating a symmetrical spherical shape.
The lens is designed to operate at a wavelength of 587.6 nm, a common value in visible light spectrum applications. The N-BK7 material, with its high refractive index and low dispersion, ensures high-quality imaging and minimal chromatic aberration.
The lens is uncoated, which means it does not have any additional layers to enhance its optical properties or protect it from environmental factors. This makes it suitable for applications where such coatings are not required or desirable.
