The 47-271 is a high-quality achromatic doublet lens, boasting a 25 mm diameter and an effective focal length of 200mm, specifically designed for use in the near-infrared spectrum, covering the wavelength range of 750-1550nm. This lens is sourced from the reputable optical vendor, Edmund Optics, and is available for purchase directly from their website.
The lens is constructed from two types of Schott glass, N-LAK22 and N-SF6, which have been carefully selected and arranged to minimize chromatic aberration, a common issue in optical systems. The lens features a robust design with a thickness of 9.25mm at the edge and 6mm at the center, ensuring durability and stability. The inner and outer radii are 0mm, indicating a symmetrical design that can be beneficial in many applications.
The 47-271 lens is coated with Edmund Optics' standard NIR-II coating on both the front and back surfaces. This coating is specifically designed to enhance performance in the near-infrared spectrum, providing improved transmission and reduced reflectance. The coating is a crucial component in ensuring the lens's overall performance and longevity.
