The 48-960 is a Plano-Convex lens, a type of spherical lens, sourced from Edmund Optics. This lens boasts a 12mm diameter and a 100mm focal length, making it suitable for a wide range of optical applications. The lens is made from fused silica, a material with a high damage threshold and excellent transmission properties, particularly in the ultraviolet (UV) and visible (VIS) regions of the spectrum.
The lens features a standard anti-reflection coating on both the front and back surfaces, designed for the visible spectrum (VIS 0°). This coating enhances the lens's transmission capabilities, reducing unwanted reflections and improving overall system performance. The coating is specifically tailored to a central wavelength of 587.6nm, which falls within the visible spectrum.
The geometry of the lens is characterized by its edge thickness of 2.05mm and center thickness of 2.44mm. The lens's inner radius is 0mm, and the outer radius is also 0mm, indicating a plano surface on one side. The lens's back focal length (BFL) is 98.33mm, and its effective focal length (EFL) is 100mm.
