The 45-510-INK is a Plano-Convex lens, a type of spherical lens, sourced from Edmund Optics. This lens, with a diameter of 25.0mm, is designed for use in the visible to near-infrared (VIS-NIR) spectrum, specifically catering to wavelengths between 400-1000nm.
The lens has a front surface with a radius of curvature of 38.76mm, leading to an effective focal length (EFL) of 75.0mm. The lens's thickness at the edge is 2.43mm, while the center thickness measures 4.5mm. The back focal length (BFL) is 72mm. The lens is inked, which aids in its identification and handling during assembly.
The lens is made of N-BK7 Schott, a popular optical glass due to its excellent optical properties and relatively low cost. The lens's coating, edm visnir0sp2002000, is applied to both the front and back surfaces, enhancing its performance in the VIS-NIR spectrum.
This lens is a versatile option for applications requiring a plano-convex lens in the VIS-NIR spectrum. Its specifications make it suitable for various applications, including but not limited to imaging, beam shaping, and light collimation.
