The 45-227 5.0mm Dia. x 5.0mm FL is a high-quality plano-convex lens sourced from Edmund Optics. This lens, with a diameter of 5mm and a focal length of 5mm, is designed for use in a wide range of optical applications.
The lens is made from n-lasf44 Schott, a material known for its excellent optical properties. The plano-convex geometry, with a central thickness of 1.87mm and an edge thickness of 1mm, ensures a clear, undistorted image. The lens has an inner radius of 0mm and an outer radius of 0mm, indicating a uniform curvature.
The lens is uncoated, which means it does not have any additional layers to enhance its optical properties. While this may result in a slightly lower transmission rate and increased susceptibility to environmental factors, it also means that the lens is more cost-effective and suitable for applications where such enhancements are not necessary.
The lens's geometry and material make it suitable for use in the visible light spectrum, specifically at a wavelength of 587.6nm. This makes it a versatile option for a wide range of optical systems that operate within this spectrum.
