This is a Plano-Convex lens, sourced from the renowned optical component vendor, Edmund Optics. The lens, identified as the 38-413, is designed for use in the Near-Infrared (NIR) spectrum, specifically between 750nm and 1550nm, making it suitable for a wide range of applications in this spectral range.
The lens has a circular base shape with a diameter of 15.0mm and a thickness of 1.62mm at the edge, increasing to 3.8mm at the center. The effective focal length (EFL) of the lens is 20mm, and the radius of curvature (R1) is 10.34mm. The back focal length (BFL) is 17.49mm. The lens is made of N-BK7 Schott, a popular optical glass due to its excellent optical properties and versatility.
The lens features a standard NIR-II coating on both the front and back surfaces. This coating is designed to enhance the lens' performance in the NIR spectrum, improving transmission and reducing unwanted reflections. According to the vendor, the coating is in stock, indicating the item's availability for immediate purchase and use.
