37-824 35.0mm Dia. x 35.0mm FL; Uncoated; Plano-Convex Lens
The 37-824 is a Plano-Convex lens, a type of spherical lens with a single curved surface and a flat surface. This lens, sourced from Edmund Optics, has a diameter of 35.0mm and a focal length of 35.0mm, making it a versatile choice for various optical applications.
The lens is made from n-SF11 Schott, a high-index glass with excellent optical properties. The high refractive index allows for a more compact lens design, making it suitable for applications where space is a constraint. The lens is uncoated, which means it does not have any anti-reflective or other coatings. This may result in higher reflective losses, but it also means the lens is more cost-effective and easier to clean.
The geometry of the lens includes a thickness of 1.7mm at the edge and 8.0mm at the center. The inner and outer radii are both 0mm, indicating a sharp edge and a flat plane, respectively. The back focal length (BFL) is 30.52mm, and the effective focal length (EFL) is the same as the focal length, at 35.0mm.
This lens is designed to work at a wavelength of 587.6nm, which is in the yellow-green part of the visible light spectrum. It is suitable for use in applications such as imaging, beam shaping, and light collimation.
