36-721 12mm Dia x 84mm FL VIS 0° Coated; UV Plano-Convex Lens VIS 0° 425-675nm
The 36-721 is a 12mm diameter, 84mm focal length plano-convex lens, specifically designed for visible light applications with a wavelength of 587.6nm. This lens is sourced from Edmund Optics, a leading provider of optical components.
The lens features a standard curvature coating on both the front and back surfaces, identified as 'edm vis-0 std curve'. This coating enhances the lens' performance in visible light applications, optimizing its transmission and reflection properties.
The lens' geometry is characterized by a 2.03mm edge thickness and a 2.5mm center thickness. The inner and outer radii are both zero, indicating a plano surface on one side and a curved surface on the other. The lens' effective focal length (EFL) is 84mm, and the back focal length (BFL) is 82.28mm. The radius of curvature (R1) is 38.51mm.
The lens is made from fused silica, identified as 'fused sil mal-1965' in the item data. This material is known for its excellent optical properties, making it suitable for a wide range of applications.
