36-724 18mm Dia x 54mm FL VIS 0° Coated; UV Plano-Convex Lens VIS 0° 425-675nm
The 36-724 is a Plano-Convex lens, a type of spherical lens, with an 18mm diameter and a focal length of 54mm. This lens is sourced from Edmund Optics, a leading vendor in the optical industry, and is available in stock. The lens is designed for visible light with a wavelength of 587.6nm and is coated with EDM VIS-0 standard curve on both the front and back surfaces.
The lens is made of fused silica, a high-quality material with excellent transparency and a low coefficient of thermal expansion. This makes it suitable for use in a wide range of temperatures and environments. The lens has a planar surface on one side and a convex surface on the other, with a radius of curvature of 24.76mm. The center thickness of the lens is 3.5mm, while the edge thickness is 1.81mm.
The lens has a broad spectral range, from 425nm to 675nm, making it versatile for various applications. The EDM VIS-0 coating on both surfaces enhances the lens's performance by reducing reflection and increasing transmission. The coating is standard and offers a good balance between cost and performance.
