This product is a Plano-Convex Lens, sourced from the renowned optical components vendor, Edmund Optics. The lens, identified as 48-251-INK, is a spherical lens with a base shape of a circle, designed for use within the visible light spectrum, specifically at a wavelength of 587.6nm.
The lens has a diameter of 50.0mm and a thickness at the edge of 2.5mm, while the center thickness measures 4.94mm. The effective focal length (EFL) of the lens is 250.0mm, and the radius of curvature (R1) is 129.21mm. The back focal length (BFL) is 246.74mm, 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 wide transparency range. The lens features a VIS 0° coating on both the front and back, which is Edmund Optics' standard curve coating for the visible light spectrum. This coating enhances the lens's performance by reducing surface reflections, thereby increasing transmission.
