This product is a Plano-Convex Lens, sourced from the renowned optical component vendor, Edmund Optics. The lens, identified as 48-735, boasts a diameter of 12.0mm and a focal length of 24.0mm, making it a compact yet powerful optical tool.
The lens is constructed from N-BK7 Schott, a popular optical glass due to its excellent optical properties and versatility. The base shape of the lens is circular, contributing to its robust design and wide range of applications.
The geometry of the lens is intricately designed, with a thickness of 1.25mm at the edge and 2.8mm at the center. The effective focal length (EFL) is 24.0mm, and the radius of curvature (R1) is 12.42mm. The back focal length (BFL) is 22.15mm, and both the inner and outer radii are 0mm, indicating a plano surface on the opposite side of the convex surface.
The lens features a coating of EDM NIR-I STD CURVE on both the front and back surfaces. This coating enhances the lens's performance in the near-infrared region, specifically between 600nm and 1050nm, making it suitable for various applications within this spectral range.
