This is a 60mm diameter, 72mm focal length plano-convex lens, specifically designed for the visible light spectrum (425-675nm). The lens is sourced from Edmund Optics, a renowned vendor in the optical industry. The lens is coated with the EDM VIS-0 standard curve on both the front and back surfaces, enhancing its performance in the visible light range.
The lens has a base shape of a circle, with a thickness of 1.48mm at the edge and 1.6mm at the center. The effective focal length (EFL) is 72mm, and the radius of curvature (R1) is 37.22mm. The back focal length (BFL) is 70.97mm, and the lens does not have any inner or outer radius.
The lens is made of n-BK7 Schott, a popular optical glass due to its excellent optical properties and relatively low cost. The wavelength for this lens is 587.6nm, which is in the middle of the visible light spectrum.
This lens is ideal for applications that require a plano-convex lens in the visible light spectrum, such as imaging systems, beam shaping, and light collimation. The EDM VIS-0 coating ensures high transmission and low reflection, making it suitable for use in high-performance optical systems.
