This is a 2.5mm diameter, 5.0mm focal length plano-convex lens, specifically designed for use within the visible light spectrum, spanning from 350 to 700nm. The lens is sourced from the reputable optical vendor, Edmund Optics, and is currently in stock.
The lens is made from n-lasf9 Schott material, a popular choice for its high transmission and low autofluorescence properties. It features a plano-convex geometry, where one side is flat and the other is curved, with a radius of curvature of 4.25mm. This design allows for a broadband anti-reflection coating, EDMM Vis Ext, to be applied to both the front and back surfaces, further enhancing its performance within the specified wavelength range.
The lens has an effective focal length of 5mm, a central thickness of 0.8mm, and an edge thickness of 0.61mm. The inner and outer radii are 0mm, indicating a uniform curvature across the lens. This lens is a circular shape, providing a wide field of view and making it suitable for a variety of applications.
