The 48-942 is a double-concave spherical lens, sourced from Edmund Optics, boasting a 9mm diameter and a focal length of -12mm. This lens is designed for use within the visible to near-infrared spectrum, spanning 400-1000nm, making it suitable for a wide range of optical applications.
The lens is constructed from n-SF11 Schott, a high-index glass with excellent transmittance properties in the specified wavelength range. The front and back surfaces of the lens are coated with edm visnir0sp2002000, a broadband anti-reflection coating that further enhances its performance by reducing surface reflections and increasing transmission.
The lens geometry includes an edge thickness of 2.43mm and a center thickness of 1.5mm, contributing to its robustness and durability. The inner and outer radii are both zero, indicating a symmetrical design. The back focal length is -12.41mm, a value that is crucial for determining the correct positioning of the lens within an optical system.
