The 38-462-INK is a Plano-Convex lens, a type of spherical lens, sourced from Edmund Optics. This lens, with a diameter of 12.7mm, is designed for use within the visible light spectrum, specifically optimized for wavelengths of 587.6nm. The lens features a front and back coating of edm vis ext, which enhances its performance within its specified wavelength range.
The lens has a base shape of a circle and a thickness at the edge of 1.62mm, while the center thickness is 3.8mm. The effective focal length (EFL) of this lens is 20mm, and the radius of curvature (R1) is 10.34mm. The back focal length (BFL) is 17.49mm, and the lens does not have an inner or outer radius.
The material of this lens is n-bk7 schott, a common material for optical lenses due to its excellent optical properties and durability. The lens is inked, which is a process that adds a dye or pigment to the lens to enhance its visibility or to mark it for identification purposes.
