The 38-272 is a Plano-Convex Lens, a type of spherical lens, sourced from Edmund Optics. This lens boasts a 6.0mm diameter and a 10mm focal length (FL), making it suitable for a wide range of applications. The lens is made from the high-quality material n-BK7 Schott, which is renowned for its excellent optical properties.
The lens features a standard curve coating on both the front and back surfaces, specifically the EDM VIS-0 standard curve. This coating enhances the lens's performance in the visible light spectrum, particularly between 425 and 675nm. The coating helps to reduce reflection and increase transmission, thereby improving the overall efficiency and quality of the optical system in which the lens is used.
The geometry of the lens is also noteworthy. It has an inner radius of 0mm and an outer radius of 0mm, indicating a uniform curvature. The edge thickness is 0.84mm, while the center thickness is 1.8mm. The back focal length (BFL) is 8.82mm, and the effective focal length (EFL) is 10mm.
