49-174 3.0mm Dia. x 3.0mm FL; VIS-NIR Coated; Plano-Convex Lens VIS-NIR 400-1000nm

The 49-174 is a 3.0mm diameter, 3.0mm focal length plano-convex lens, specifically designed for use in the visible to near-infrared spectrum (VIS-NIR), covering the wavelength range of 400-1000nm. This lens is sourced from Edmund Optics, a leading manufacturer of high-quality optical components.

The lens is made from n-SF11 Schott glass, a material known for its excellent optical properties and durability. The plano-convex geometry, where one side is flat and the other is curved, allows for efficient light collection and focusing. The lens has a center thickness of 2mm and an edge thickness of 1.46mm, providing a balance between compactness and optical performance.

The lens features a broadband anti-reflection coating, denoted as 'edm visnir0sp2002000' on both the front and back surfaces. This coating is designed to minimize surface reflections and increase transmission in the VIS-NIR range, enhancing the overall performance of the lens in its intended application.

The lens is available for immediate purchase and shipping, as indicated by its 'in stock' status on the vendor's website. With its combination of high-quality materials, precise geometry, and advanced coatings, the 49-174 is an excellent choice for a wide range of optical systems operating in the VIS-NIR spectrum.
