38-595-INK 12.7mm Dia. x 30.0mm FL; YAG-BBAR; Inked; Plano-Convex Lens YAG-BBAR 500-1100nm
The 38-595-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 in the visible light spectrum, specifically at a wavelength of 587.6nm. The lens features a front and back coating of YAG-BBAR, a type of anti-reflective coating that enhances transmission in the 500-1100nm range.
The lens has a thickness of 1.34mm at the edge and 2.7mm at the center, with an effective focal length (EFL) of 30mm. The radius of curvature for the first surface (R1) is 15.51mm, and the back focal length (BFL) is 28.22mm. The lens is made of N-BK7 Schott, a popular optical glass known for its excellent optical properties and high Abbe number.
The YAG-BBAR coating on the lens is a broadband anti-reflective coating that reduces surface reflections and increases transmission. This coating is designed to work in the 500-1100nm range, making it suitable for a wide range of applications, including but not limited to, biomedical imaging, laser systems, and optical metrology.
