The 48-723-INK is a Plano-Convex lens, a type of spherical lens, sourced from Edmund Optics. This lens, with a diameter of 6.0mm, is designed for use in the near-infrared spectrum, specifically between 600-1050nm, as indicated by its NIR I coating.
The lens features a focal length of 48mm, with a front surface radius of curvature of 24.81mm and a back focal length of 46.95mm. The lens has a center thickness of 1.6mm and an edge thickness of 1.42mm. The lens material is n-BK7 Schott, a common material for optical lenses due to its excellent optical properties.
The lens's coating, NIR I, is a standard curve coating provided by Edmund Optics, designed to optimize performance in the near-infrared spectrum. This coating ensures high transmission rates and reduces reflection, making it ideal for applications such as thermal imaging, spectroscopy, and other near-infrared-based technologies.
