32-848 6.0mm Dia. x 36.0mm FL Plano-Convex Lens Uncoated
The 32-848 is a 6.0mm diameter, 36.0mm focal length Plano-Convex lens offered by Edmund Optics. This lens, made from the renowned N-BK7 glass by Schott, is uncoated, providing a clear, albeit less protected, optical surface.
The lens's geometry is characterized by a 1.36mm edge thickness and a 1.6mm center thickness. Its effective focal length (EFL) is 36mm, making it suitable for a wide range of applications that require moderate magnification and field of view. The lens's radius of curvature (R1) is 18.61mm, and its back focal length (BFL) is 34.95mm, providing a long focal distance for optimal focus and image formation.
The lens's base shape is circular, allowing for uniform light transmission and minimal distortion. The lack of an anti-reflective coating may result in some light loss due to reflection, but it also means the lens is less susceptible to damage from environmental factors.
This lens is a great option for those seeking a high-quality, uncoated Plano-Convex lens for their optical system. It's important to note that the lens's specifications are optimized for a wavelength of 587.6nm, making it particularly suitable for applications in the yellow-green part of the spectrum.
