This is a Plano-Convex Lens, a type of spherical lens, sourced from the renowned optical vendor, Edmund Optics. The lens has a base shape of a circle and a diameter of 25.0mm, making it suitable for a wide range of optical applications. The lens's thickness at the edge is 2.44mm, while its center thickness is 3.2mm, providing a solid structure for efficient light transmission.
The effective focal length (EFL) of this lens is 200.0mm, which is the distance from the lens's center to the focal point where light rays converge. The lens's front radius of curvature (R1) is 103.36mm, and the back focal length (BFL) is 197.89mm. The lens does not have an inner or outer radius, indicating a uniform curvature.
The lens is made of n-BK7 Schott, a high-quality optical glass known for its excellent transparency and low dispersion. This makes the lens ideal for applications that require high image quality and minimal chromatic aberration.
The lens is coated with YAG-BBAR, a type of anti-reflective coating that enhances its light transmission capabilities. This coating is effective for wavelengths between 500nm and 1100nm, making the lens suitable for a wide range of applications, including but not limited to, biomedical imaging, laser systems, and optical metrology.
The lens's coating is applied to both the front and back surfaces, ensuring optimal light transmission and minimal reflection. The coating also provides protection against environmental factors, such as dust and moisture, thereby increasing the lens's durability and lifespan.
