The 38-354-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 front and back coating of edm nir-i std curve, providing enhanced performance in the NIR range.
The lens has a thickness of 1.4mm at the edge and 3.5mm at the center, with an effective focal length (EFL) of 20mm. The radius of curvature for the first surface (R1) is 10.34mm, and the back focal length (BFL) is 17.69mm. The lens is made of n-bk7 schott, a common material for optical lenses due to its excellent optical properties.
The lens is inked, a process that involves applying a dye to the lens to enhance its visibility under certain conditions. This can be particularly useful in applications where the lens needs to be easily located or identified.
The item data provided does not include information on the lens's outer and inner radii. However, it is specified as a Plano-Convex lens, indicating that one surface is flat (Plano) and the other is curved (Convex).
