This product is a Plano-Convex Lens, sourced from the renowned optical components vendor, Edmund Optics. The lens, identified as 45-483, boasts a diameter of 12.0mm and a focal length of 24.0mm, making it a compact yet powerful optical tool.
The lens is crafted from the high-quality material, n-BK7 Schott, a borosilicate glass known for its excellent optical properties. This material ensures high transmission and low dispersion, making it ideal for a wide range of applications.
The lens features a plano-convex geometry, where one side is flat, and the other side is curved. The curvature of the lens is defined by a radius of 12.42mm, and the lens's overall length is 1.25mm at the edge and 2.8mm at the center. This geometry, combined with the lens's material, provides a back focal length of 22.15mm.
The lens is coated with a VIS-NIR coating, specifically edm visnir0sp2002000, on both the front and back surfaces. This coating enhances the lens's performance in the visible to near-infrared spectrum, 400-1000nm, by reducing reflection and increasing transmission.
