32-964 6mm Dia. x 12mm FL Uncoated; Double-Convex Lens
The 32-964 is a 6mm diameter, double-convex lens with a focal length of 12mm, sourced from the reputable optical vendor, Edmund Optics. This lens is uncoated and features a base shape of a circle, making it suitable for a wide range of optical applications.
The lens's geometry is characterized by a thickness of 1.64mm at the edge and 2.4mm at the center, with an effective focal length (EFL) of 12mm. The first radius of curvature (R1) is 11.98mm, while the second radius (R2) is -11.98mm, indicating a double-convex shape. The back focal length (BFL) of this lens is 11.18mm.
The material of this lens is n-BK7 Schott, a high-quality optical glass known for its excellent transparency and low dispersion. The lens is designed to operate at a wavelength of 587.6nm. The shape of the lens is spherical, which is a common choice for many optical systems due to its ease of manufacturing and good performance.
Please note that the lens is uncoated, which means it does not have any anti-reflective or protective coatings. This may affect its performance in high-intensity light situations or when exposed to environmental factors. However, uncoated lenses can be more cost-effective and are often chosen for applications where such factors are not a concern.
