The 35-994 is a high-quality achromatic doublet lens, sourced from the renowned optical vendor, Edmund Optics. This lens, with a 9 mm diameter, is designed for use in the ultraviolet-visible (UV-VIS) spectrum, specifically between 345 and 700 nanometers.
The lens features a focal length of 27mm, making it suitable for a wide range of optical applications. It is constructed from two types of Schott glass, N-FK5 and F2HT, which are renowned for their optical clarity and durability. The lens is coated with Edmund Optics' standard UV-VIS coating on both the front and back surfaces, ensuring optimal performance and longevity.
The lens geometry is carefully designed, with a center thickness of 3.75mm and edge thickness of 4.29mm. The lens curvature is also precisely engineered, with radii of 14.6mm and -12.12mm for the first and second surfaces, respectively, and a third radius of -40.64mm for the air-glass interface. This complex geometry helps to minimize optical aberrations and distortions, ensuring sharp, clear images.
