This UV Plano-Convex Lens, model 36-703, is a high-quality optical component sourced from Edmund Optics. It is designed for use within the ultraviolet-visible (UV-VIS) spectrum, specifically catering to wavelengths between 250 and 700 nanometers.
The lens boasts a 6mm diameter and a 21mm focal length (FL), making it suitable for a wide range of applications. The base shape is circular, and the lens is spherical, featuring a plano-convex geometry. The center thickness of the lens is 2mm, while the edge thickness is 1.52mm, providing a solid and robust structure.
The lens is made from fused silica, a material with the material ID mal-1965. This material is known for its excellent optical properties, making it an ideal choice for applications that require high-performance optics.
The lens is coated with a UV-VIS standard curve coating on both the front and back surfaces. This coating enhances the lens's performance within the UV-VIS spectrum, ensuring optimal light transmission and reducing unwanted reflections.
The item data also provides information about the lens's radii. The first radius (R1) is 9.63mm, and the back focal length (BFL) is 19.63mm. The inner and outer radii are both 0mm, indicating a uniform curvature.
