This 12mm diameter x 30mm focal length (FL) plano-convex lens, model 48-956, is sourced from Edmund Optics. It is designed for visible (VIS) light with a wavelength of 587.6nm and operates within the UV spectrum, specifically between 425-675nm. The lens features a front and back coating of edm vis-0 std curve, providing enhanced performance and durability.
The lens's geometry includes a 2.17mm edge thickness and a 3.55mm center thickness, with an effective focal length (EFL) of 30mm. The inner radius is 0mm, and the outer radius is also 0mm, indicating a flat surface on one side. The lens's base shape is circular, and its sub-type is spherical, with a 13.75mm radius of curvature (R1) and a back focal length (BFL) of 27.56mm.
The lens is made from fused sil mal-1965, a material known for its excellent optical properties. The item data does not specify whether this lens is part of a larger system or if it is a standalone component. However, its specifications make it suitable for various applications that require a plano-convex lens with UV and VIS light capabilities.
