The 38-461-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, making it suitable for a wide range of optical applications.
The lens features a plano-convex geometry, meaning one side is flat (plano) while the other side is curved (convex). The curvature of the lens is defined by a radius of 51.68mm, and it has a center thickness of 1.6mm and an edge thickness of 1.22mm. The effective focal length (EFL) of the lens is 100mm, and the back focal length (BFL) is 98.95mm.
The lens is made from N-BK7 Schott, a popular optical glass due to its excellent optical properties and relatively low cost. The lens is coated with EDM VIS EXT, a broadband anti-reflection coating designed for use in the visible spectrum, which reduces surface reflections and improves transmission.
The lens is inked, a process that adds a visible marking to the lens for identification purposes. This lens is currently in stock and available for immediate shipping. For more detailed information, please refer to the vendor's website or contact their sales team.
