The 45-473-INK is a Plano-Convex lens, a type of spherical lens, sourced from Edmund Optics. This lens, with a diameter of 6.0mm, is designed for use within the visible to near-infrared spectrum, specifically between 400-1000nm. The lens has a front (planar) side and a back (convex) side, both of which are coated with the EDM VISNIR0SP2002000 coating, enhancing its performance within the specified wavelength range.
The lens has a thickness of 1.36mm at the edge and 1.6mm at the center, with an effective focal length (EFL) of 36.0mm. The radius of curvature for the first surface (R1) is 18.61mm, and the back focal length (BFL) is 34.95mm. The lens does not have an inner radius or an outer radius, indicating a uniform curvature across its surface.
This lens is made of N-BK7 Schott, a common optical glass with a high refractive index and low dispersion, making it suitable for a wide range of optical applications. The lens's geometry, material, and coating make it an ideal choice for applications that require a compact, high-performance lens within the visible to near-infrared spectrum.
