The 49-357 is a high-quality achromatic doublet lens, boasting a 25 mm diameter and a focal length of 60 mm, specifically designed for the visual (VIS) and near-infrared (NIR) spectrum, spanning 400-1000nm. This lens is sourced from the reputable optical vendor, Edmund Optics, and is available for purchase on their official website.
The lens is constructed from two types of Schott glass, N-SSK8 and N-SF10, which are renowned for their excellent optical properties. The front and back surfaces of the lens are coated with the EDM VIS-NIR 0SP2002000 coating, enhancing its performance in the VIS-NIR spectrum.
The lens geometry is meticulously designed, with an inner radius of 0 mm, an outer radius of 0 mm, and a thickness at the edge of 8.78 mm. The first and second radii of curvature are 31.94 mm and -29.95 mm, respectively, while the third radius of curvature is -1029.79 mm. The center thickness of the lens is 9 mm, with an additional 2.4 mm at the center a.
This lens is a multiplet, meaning it is composed of multiple optical elements. Its design and construction make it an ideal choice for various applications within the VIS-NIR spectrum.
