38-460-INK 12.5mm Dia. x 75.0mm FL; VIS-EXT; Inked; Plano-Convex Lens VIS-EXT 350-700nm
The 38-460-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 between 350-700nm. The lens features a front and back coating of edm vis ext, which is a proprietary coating developed by Edmund Optics to enhance the lens's performance within the visible light spectrum.
The lens has a base shape of a circle and a thickness at the edge of 1.19mm, which gradually increases to 1.7mm at the center. The effective focal length (EFL) of the lens is 75mm, making it suitable for applications that require a longer focal length. The lens's front surface has a radius of curvature (R1) of 38.76mm, and the back focal length (BFL) is 73.88mm.
The lens is made from n-bk7 schott, a high-quality optical glass known for its excellent transparency and low dispersion. This makes the lens ideal for applications that require high image quality and low chromatic aberration. The lens's geometry is plano-convex, meaning one side is flat, and the other side is curved. This design allows for a wide range of applications, including imaging, beam shaping, and focusing.
