The 38-348-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 in the near-infrared (NIR) spectrum, specifically between 600 and 1050nm. The lens features a standard curve coating on both the front and back surfaces, identified as 'edm nir-i std curve'.
The lens's geometry includes a thickness of 1.5mm at the edge and 3.75mm at the center, with an effective focal length (EFL) of 12.5mm. The radius of curvature for the first surface (R1) is 9.81mm, and the back focal length (BFL) is 10.4mm. The lens is made from N-SF11 Schott glass, a material known for its high refractive index and low dispersion, making it ideal for NIR applications.
The lens's coating and material selection make it suitable for a wide range of NIR applications, including spectroscopy, thermal imaging, and night vision systems. The 38-348-INK is currently in stock, according to the vendor's website, making it an immediately available option for your optical system needs.
