37-804 12.7mm Dia. x 100.0mm FL; Uncoated; Plano-Convex Lens
The 37-804 12.7mm Dia. x 100.0mm FL; Uncoated; Plano-Convex Lens is a high-quality optical component sourced from Edmund Optics. This lens, with a diameter of 12.7mm and a focal length of 100.0mm, is a spherical lens of the plano-convex type, featuring a base shape that is circular.
The lens's geometry is meticulously designed, with an edge thickness of 1.31mm and a center thickness of 1.7mm. The effective focal length (EFL) is 100mm, and the radius of curvature (R1) is 51.68mm. The back focal length (BFL) is 98.88mm, and both the inner and outer radii are 0mm.
The lens is made from the material n-BK7 Schott, a popular choice in the optical industry due to its excellent optical properties. The lens is uncoated, which means it does not have any additional layers to enhance its optical performance. However, uncoated lenses can still provide high-quality imaging, especially in applications where the light path is not excessively long or where the light is not too divergent.
This lens is designed to work with a wavelength of 587.6nm, making it suitable for a wide range of applications in the visible light spectrum. The lens's shape is spherical, which is a common geometry for optical lenses due to its ease of manufacturing and good optical performance.
