36-736 18mm Dia x 54mm FL VIS-NIR Coated; UV Plano-Convex Lens VIS-NIR 400-1000nm
The 36-736 is a UV Plano-Convex Lens, part of Edmund Optics' extensive catalog of optical elements. This lens, with a diameter of 18mm and a focal length of 54mm, is designed for use in the visible (VIS) and near-infrared (NIR) spectrum, specifically catering to the wavelength range of 400-1000nm.
The lens is made of fused silica, a material with a high transmission range, making it ideal for applications that require minimal absorption and scattering. The front and back surfaces of the lens are coated with edm visnir0sp2002000, a coating that enhances its performance in the VIS-NIR spectrum.
The lens's geometry is spherical, with a base shape of a circle. The edge thickness measures 1.81mm, while the center thickness is 3.5mm. The lens's effective focal length (EFL) is 54mm, and the front radius of curvature (R1) is 24.76mm. The back focal length (BFL) is 51.6mm, and the lens has no inner or outer radius.
According to the vendor's information, this item is currently in stock, and the web link provided leads to its product page on the Edmund Optics website. This lens is a Spherical Lens (Plano-Convex) type, a common choice for applications that require a simple, single-element lens.
