38-469 18.0mm Dia. x 25.0mm FL; VIS-EXT Coated; Plano-Convex Lens VIS-EXT 350-700nm
The 38-469 is a Plano-Convex lens, a type of spherical lens, sourced from Edmund Optics. It boasts an 18.0mm diameter and a 25.0mm focal length (FL), making it suitable for a wide range of optical applications. The lens is made from n-BK7 Schott, a high-quality optical glass known for its excellent transparency and low dispersion.
The lens features a front and back coating of EDM VIS EXT, a broadband anti-reflection coating designed for use in the visible spectrum, specifically between 350-700nm. This coating significantly reduces surface reflections, enhancing the lens's overall transmission and improving its performance in various lighting conditions.
The geometry of the lens includes a 1.65mm edge thickness and a 5.3mm center thickness. The inner and outer radii are 0, and the lens's effective focal length (EFL) is 25mm. The front surface has a radius of curvature of 12.92mm, and the back focal length (BFL) is 21.51mm.
