This is a 38-486 Plano-Convex Lens, sourced from the reputable optical components vendor, Edmund Optics. The lens boasts a 9.0mm diameter and a 10mm focal length, making it suitable for a wide range of applications. The base shape of the lens is circular, and it features a spherical geometry, with a 7.85mm radius of curvature on the front surface and a 8.49mm back focal length.
The lens is constructed from n-SF11 Schott material, a popular choice for its high refractive index and low dispersion properties. This makes the lens particularly suitable for applications that require high performance in the visible to near-infrared spectrum, specifically between 400-1000nm.
The lens is coated with a VIS-NIR coating, specifically the EDM VISNIR0SP2002000 coating, on both the front and back surfaces. This coating is designed to enhance the lens's performance in the visible to near-infrared spectrum, reducing surface reflections and increasing transmission.
The lens has a thickness of 1.28mm at the edge and 2.7mm at the center. The inner radius is 0mm, and the outer radius is also 0mm, indicating a uniform curvature across the lens surface.
