The 49-760 is a high-quality achromatic doublet lens from Edmund Optics, designed with a 12.7 mm diameter and a focal length of 25.4 mm. This lens is a multiplet, meaning it is composed of multiple optical elements to achieve superior performance.
The lens is made from two types of Schott glass, N-SSK8 and N-SF56, which are renowned for their optical properties. The N-SSK8 is used for the first element, while the N-SF56 is used for the second. This combination helps to correct chromatic aberration, a common issue in optical systems where different wavelengths of light are focused at different points.
The lens features a standard MgF2 coating on both the front and back surfaces. This coating is designed to reduce reflection and increase transmission, particularly in the 400-700 nm range. The thickness of the lens varies, with a center thickness of 4 mm and an edge thickness of 4.1 mm.
The 49-760 is currently in stock and available for purchase through the Edmund Optics website. With its superior optical performance and robust design, this lens is an excellent choice for a wide range of optical applications.
