This product is a Plano-Convex lens, sourced from the renowned optical components vendor, Edmund Optics. The lens, identified as 47-875-INK, is a spherical lens with a circular base shape, designed for use within the visible light spectrum, specifically at a wavelength of 587.6nm.
The lens has a diameter of 15.0mm and a thickness at the edge of 1.59mm, while the center thickness measures 3.0mm. The effective focal length (EFL) of the lens is 40.0mm, and the radius of curvature (R1) is 20.67mm. The back focal length (BFL) is 38.02mm, and the lens does not have an inner or outer radius.
The lens is made from N-BK7 Schott, a popular optical glass due to its excellent optical properties and relatively low cost. The lens features a standard Vis-0 coating on both the front and back surfaces, designed to enhance its performance within the visible light spectrum, specifically between 425-675nm.
The lens's geometry and coating make it suitable for a wide range of optical applications. The detailed specifications provided ensure that users can make informed decisions when selecting components for their specific needs.
