48-982 25mm Dia. x 25mm FL; VIS 0deg Coated; UV Double-Convex Lens VIS 0deg 425-675nm

The 48-982 is a 25mm diameter x 25mm focal length spherical lens, specifically designed for visible light applications with a 0-degree standard curve coating on both the front and back surfaces. This lens is sourced from the reputable vendor, Edmund Optics.

The lens is constructed from fused silica, a high-quality material with excellent transparency in the ultraviolet, visible, and near-infrared regions of the spectrum. The base shape is circular, and the lens features a double-convex geometry, with radii of curvature of 21.06mm for the first surface and -21.06mm for the second surface. This geometry results in an effective focal length of 25mm and a back focal length of 20.93mm.

The lens has a center thickness of 10.9mm and an edge thickness of 2.68mm, providing robustness and durability. The coating on the lens is a standard visible light coating, designed to enhance transmission and reduce reflection in the visible spectrum. The wavelength of operation for this coating is 587.6nm.

This lens is suitable for a wide range of applications, including imaging, beam shaping, and light collimation. It is particularly well-suited for use in systems operating in the visible spectrum, where high transmission and low reflection are critical. The double-convex geometry provides a wide field of view and low distortion, making it an excellent choice for imaging applications.
