The 49-306-INK 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 1000 nanometers.
The lens features an effective focal length (EFL) of 20 mm, making it suitable for a wide range of optical applications. The achromatic design ensures that the lens effectively compensates for chromatic aberration, a common issue in optical systems where different wavelengths of light are focused at different points.
The lens is composed of two elements, the first made from N-BK7 Schott glass and the second from N-SF5 Schott glass. Both elements are coated with Edmund Optics' VIS-NIR 0SP2002000 coating, which provides superior anti-reflection properties, enhancing the overall performance of the lens.
The geometry of the lens is carefully crafted, with a central thickness of 2.7 mm and edge thickness of 3 mm. The lens also features a first radius (r1) of 12.3 mm and a second radius (r2) of -8.71 mm, ensuring optimal light transmission and focus.
