The 38-294-INK is a Plano-Convex lens, a type of spherical lens, sourced from Edmund Optics. This lens, with a diameter of 12.5mm, is designed for use within the visible light spectrum, specifically at a wavelength of 587.6nm. The lens has a front and back coating of edm vis-0 std curve, providing standard anti-reflection properties.
The lens's geometry is characterized by its edge thickness of 1.14mm and center thickness of 2mm. The effective focal length (EFL) is 45mm, and the radius of curvature (R1) is 23.26mm. The back focal length (BFL) is 43.68mm, and both the inner and outer radii are 0mm. The lens is made from n-bk7 schott material, a common choice for optical elements due to its excellent optical properties.
The lens's coating and material make it suitable for a variety of applications within the specified wavelength range. The anti-reflection coating reduces light loss due to reflection, thereby increasing the amount of light transmitted. This makes the lens ideal for use in imaging systems, beam shaping, and other applications where efficient light transmission is crucial.
