48-676 12mm Dia. x 36mm FL UV-AR Coated; UV Plano-Convex Lens UV-AR 250-425nm

This 12mm diameter by 36mm focal length UV-AR coated plano-convex lens, sourced from Edmund Optics, is a high-quality optical component designed for use in the ultraviolet spectrum. The lens is made from fused silica, a material known for its excellent transparency in the UV range.

The lens features a plano-convex geometry, meaning one side is flat while the other is curved. The curvature of the lens is defined by a radius of 16.51mm, which contributes to a back focal length of 34.29mm. The lens has an edge thickness of 1.37mm and a center thickness of 2.5mm, providing a balanced structure for efficient light transmission.

The lens is coated with a UV-AR coating on both the front and back surfaces, designed to enhance its performance in the UV range. This coating, specifically the EDM UV STD CURVE, provides anti-reflection properties, reducing unwanted reflections and increasing transmission in the 250-425nm wavelength range.

This lens is a versatile component, suitable for a wide range of applications that require UV transmission and precise optical control. Its high-quality construction and reliable performance make it a valuable addition to any optical system.
