45-819 9 mm Dia. N-BK7/N-SF5 Achromatic Doublet; EFL=60mm MgF2 400-700nm
The 45-819 is a high-quality achromatic doublet lens, sourced from the renowned optical vendor, Edmund Optics. This lens is designed with a 9 mm diameter and a focal length of 60 mm, making it suitable for a wide range of optical applications.
The lens is constructed from two types of glass, N-BK7 and N-SF5, both from Schott. This combination is used to correct chromatic aberration, a common issue in optical systems where different wavelengths of light are focused at different points. The achromatic design ensures that the lens focuses both red and blue light to the same point, providing sharper images.
The lens features a standard MgF2 coating on both the front and back surfaces. This coating reduces reflection and increases transmission, particularly in the 400-700 nm range. The coating also provides protection against environmental factors, ensuring the longevity of the lens.
The geometry of the lens is carefully designed to optimize its performance. The edge thickness is 3.32 mm, while the center thickness is 3.5 mm. The lens also features a central thickness 'a' of 1.5 mm. The inner and outer radii are 0 mm, indicating a symmetrical design.
