This 36-737 UV Plano-Convex Lens, sourced from Edmund Optics, is a high-quality optical component designed for use in the visible to near-infrared spectrum (VIS-NIR), specifically covering the wavelength range of 400-1000nm. The lens boasts a diameter of 25mm and a focal length of 35mm, making it a versatile choice for a variety of applications.
The lens is constructed from fused silica (mal-1965), a material known for its excellent transparency and durability. It features a plano-convex geometry, with a spherical shape that provides a broad field of view and minimal distortion. The lens has a center thickness of 8.5mm and an edge thickness of 2.51mm, offering a robust and stable structure.
The 36-737 lens is coated with the EDM VIS-NIR 0SP2002000 coating on both the front and back surfaces. This coating enhances the lens's performance by reducing reflection and increasing transmission, thereby improving light efficiency and image quality. The coating is specifically designed for the VIS-NIR spectrum, ensuring optimal performance in its intended wavelength range.
