The 49-306 is a high-quality achromatic doublet lens, designed and manufactured by Edmund Optics. This lens, with a diameter of 6.25 mm, is specifically engineered for use in the visible (VIS) and near-infrared (NIR) spectrum, spanning from 400 to 1000nm.
The lens features a focal length (EFL) of 20mm, making it suitable for a wide range of optical applications. The achromatic design, which combines two different types of glass (N-BK7 and N-SF5), effectively reduces chromatic aberration, ensuring sharp and clear images across the entire spectral range.
The geometry of the lens includes a thickness of 3mm at the edge, a central thickness of 2.7mm, and a central thickness 'a' of 0.9mm. The lens also features inner and outer radii of 0mm, and radii 'r1' and 'r2' of 12.3mm and -8.71mm respectively. The 'r3' radius is -24.98mm.
The lens is coated with Edmund Optics' proprietary VIS-NIR coating (edm visnir0sp2002000) on both the front and back surfaces, enhancing its transmission characteristics and overall performance in the VIS-NIR spectrum.
