The 48-743 is a Plano-Convex Spherical Lens, sourced from the renowned optical components vendor, Edmund Optics. This lens boasts a 12.0mm diameter and a focal length of 84.0mm, making it suitable for a wide range of applications.
The lens is crafted from n-BK7 Schott, a high-quality optical glass known for its excellent transparency and low dispersion. This material ensures superior image quality and color fidelity. The lens features a front and back coating of EDM NIR-I std curve, which enhances its performance in the near-infrared spectrum, specifically between 600-1050nm.
The geometry of the lens is meticulously designed, with a thickness of 2.08mm at the edge and 2.5mm at the center. The inner radius is 0mm, and the outer radius is also 0mm, indicating a uniform curvature. The lens's effective focal length (EFL) is 84mm, and the back focal length (BFL) is 82.39mm.
The lens's curvature and dimensions make it a versatile component in various optical systems. It can be used in imaging systems, beam shaping, or as a focusing element in laser applications. The lens's NIR coating makes it particularly suitable for applications that require near-infrared transmission.
