45-491 15.0mm Dia. x 15.0mm FL; VIS-NIR Coated; Plano-Convex Lens VIS-NIR 400-1000nm

This product is a Plano-Convex Lens, sourced from the renowned optical vendor, Edmund Optics. The lens, identified as 45-491, boasts a diameter of 15.0mm and a focal length of 15.0mm, making it a compact yet powerful optical component.

The lens is crafted from n-SF5 Schott, a high-quality optical material known for its excellent transmission properties across a wide spectrum. This particular lens is designed to transmit light within the Visible to Near-Infrared range, specifically from 400 to 1000nm, making it suitable for a broad range of optical applications.

The lens features a Plano-Convex geometry, where one side is flat (Plano) and the other side is curved (Convex). The curvature of the lens is defined by a radius of 10.09mm, and the lens has a central thickness of 5.5mm and an edge thickness of 2.16mm. This geometry, combined with the lens's material and coating, contributes to its high-performance capabilities.

The lens is coated with edm visnir0sp2002000 on both the front and back surfaces. This coating is specifically designed to enhance the lens's performance within the Visible to Near-Infrared range, further optimizing its use in various optical systems.
