34-177 12.0mm Dia. x 36.0mm FL; VIS-EXT Coated; Plano-Convex Lens VIS-EXT 350-700nm
This item is a Plano-Convex lens, sourced from the renowned optical components vendor, Edmund Optics. The lens, identified as 34-177, has a diameter of 12.0mm and a focal length of 36.0mm, making it a compact yet powerful optical component.
The lens is made from the high-quality material n-BK7 Schott, a borosilicate glass known for its excellent optical properties, including a low refractive index and low dispersion. This makes the lens suitable for a wide range of applications, particularly where high image quality and minimal distortion are required.
The lens features a VIS-EXT coating on both the front and back surfaces. This coating, specific to the visual spectrum (350-700nm), enhances the lens's performance by reducing surface reflections and increasing transmission. The coating ensures that the lens delivers optimal performance in its intended spectral range.
The geometry of the lens is meticulously designed, with an inner radius of 0mm and an outer radius of 0mm. The edge thickness is 2.01mm, while the center thickness is 3mm. The back focal length is 34.02mm, and the effective focal length is 36mm. These specifications contribute to the lens's high performance and versatility.
