45-691 6mm Dia. x 12mm FL Uncoated; UV Plano-Convex Lens
The 45-691 6mm Dia. x 12mm FL Uncoated; UV Plano-Convex Lens is a high-quality optical component sourced from Edmund Optics. This lens, with a diameter of 6mm, is designed for use in a variety of applications that require a spherical lens with a plano-convex geometry.
The lens features a base shape of a circle, with a thickness at the edge of 1.11mm and a center thickness of 2mm. The effective focal length (EFL) of this lens is 12mm, making it suitable for applications that require a longer focal length. The lens's back focal length (BFL) is 10.63mm, and it has an inner radius of 0mm and an outer radius of 0mm.
The lens is made from fused silica, a material with the material ID of mal-1965. This material is known for its excellent optical properties, making it ideal for use in a wide range of applications. The lens is designed to work with a wavelength of 587.6nm.
Notably, this lens is uncoated, meaning it does not have any anti-reflective or other coatings applied to it. This can be advantageous in certain applications where a coating may interfere with the desired optical properties. However, it's important to note that uncoated lenses can have higher levels of reflection, which may need to be taken into account in the design of the optical system.
