The 49-396-INK is a high-quality achromatic doublet lens, sourced from the renowned optical vendor, Edmund Optics. This lens, with a diameter of 50 mm, is designed for use in the visible (VIS) and near-infrared (NIR) spectrum, specifically catering to the wavelength range of 400-1000nm.
The lens is a multiplet, meaning it is composed of multiple optical elements. In this case, it is made up of two different materials: N-BK7 and N-SF5, both from Schott. The use of these materials helps to correct chromatic aberration, a common issue in lens systems, thereby improving the overall image quality.
The lens has an effective focal length (EFL) of 500mm, making it suitable for applications that require a long focal length. The geometry of the lens is carefully designed, with an edge thickness of 10.51mm and a center thickness of 8mm. The lens also features a coating of edm visnir0sp2002000 on both the front and back surfaces, enhancing its performance in the VIS-NIR spectrum.
The 49-396-INK is currently in stock and available for immediate purchase through the Edmund Optics website. With its superior design and quality materials, this lens is an excellent choice for a wide range of optical applications.
