This product is a Plano-Convex Lens, sourced from the renowned optical vendor, Edmund Optics. The lens, identified as 48-663, boasts a diameter of 40.0mm and a focal length of 40.0mm, making it a versatile choice for various optical applications.
The lens is constructed from n-sf11 Schott, a high-index material often used in high-performance optical systems due to its excellent dispersion characteristics. 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 particularly useful in applications where a collimated beam needs to be focused to a spot.
The lens's geometry details include a thickness of 1.5mm at the edge and 8.7mm at the center. The radius of curvature (R1) is 31.39mm, and the back focal length (BFL) is 35.13mm. The lens does not have an inner or outer radius.
The lens is coated with edm visnir0sp2002000 on both the front and back surfaces. This coating is designed for the visible (VIS) and near-infrared (NIR) spectrum, specifically for the wavelength of 587.6nm. The coating enhances the lens's performance in the specified spectrum, making it suitable for applications that require high transmission and low reflectance in this range.
