This product is a Plano-Convex lens, sourced from the renowned optical components vendor, Edmund Optics. The lens, identified as 47-477-INK, boasts a 9.0mm diameter and a focal length of 45.0mm, making it suitable for a wide range of optical applications.
The lens is constructed from N-BK7 Schott, a popular optical glass due to its excellent optical properties and versatility. The base shape of the lens is circular, and it features a plano-convex geometry, where one side is flat, and the other side is curved. This geometry is often used in optical systems to focus or collimate light.
The lens's thickness at the edge is 1.1mm, while the center thickness is 1.54mm. The effective focal length (EFL) is 45mm, and the radius of curvature (R1) is 23.26mm. The back focal length (BFL) is 43.98mm, and the inner and outer radii are both 0mm.
The lens is coated with the EDM VIS-0 standard curve on both the front and back surfaces. This coating enhances the lens's performance in the visible spectrum, specifically between 425-675nm.
