The 47-877-INK is a Plano-Convex lens, a type of spherical lens, sourced from Edmund Optics. This lens, with a diameter of 15.0mm, is designed for use within the visible light spectrum, specifically at a wavelength of 587.6nm. The lens has a front and back coating of edm vis-0 std curve, providing standard performance and durability.
The lens's geometry is characterized by its edge thickness of 1.1mm and center thickness of 1.83mm. It has an effective focal length (EFL) of 75.0mm, which is the distance from the lens's center to the focal point. The lens's front surface has a radius of curvature (R1) of 38.76mm, and its back focal length (BFL) is 73.79mm. The lens's inner and outer radii are both 0mm, indicating a uniform curvature.
The lens is made from n-bk7 schott, a popular optical glass due to its excellent optical properties and versatility. This material is known for its low dispersion and high Abbe number, making it suitable for a wide range of optical applications.
The lens's coating and material make it suitable for use within the visible light spectrum, specifically between 425nm and 675nm. This makes it ideal for applications such as imaging, beam shaping, and light collimation.
