The 49-363 is a high-quality achromatic doublet lens, designed and manufactured by Edmund Optics. This lens, with a diameter of 25 mm, is specifically engineered for use in the visible to near-infrared spectrum, spanning from 400 to 1000 nm. The lens boasts an effective focal length (EFL) of 175 mm, making it suitable for a wide range of optical applications.
The lens is constructed from two types of glass, N-BK7 and N-SF5, both from Schott. These materials are carefully selected for their optical properties, contributing to the lens's overall performance. The lens features a complex geometry, with a center thickness of 6 mm, an edge thickness of 7.94 mm, and radii of curvature of 109.16 mm, -79.38 mm, and -226.03 mm for the first, second, and third surfaces, respectively.
The 49-363 lens is coated with Edmund Optics' VIS-NIR coating (edm visnir0sp2002000), which is applied to both the front and back surfaces. This coating is designed to enhance the lens's transmission in the visible to near-infrared spectrum, further optimizing its performance in its intended application range.
