The 49-794 is a high-quality achromatic doublet lens, designed and manufactured by Edmund Optics. This lens, with a diameter of 25.4 mm, is specifically engineered for use in the visible (VIS) and near-infrared (NIR) spectrum, spanning 400-1000nm. The lens is constructed from two types of Schott glass, N-SSK8 and N-SF56, which are renowned for their optical clarity and durability.
The lens features an effective focal length (EFL) of 76.2 mm, making it suitable for a wide range of optical applications. The geometry of the lens is carefully crafted, with a thickness at the edge of 7.85 mm and a center thickness of 7 mm. The lens also includes an additional 3 mm thickness at the center a position. The inner and outer radii of the lens are 0, indicating a symmetrical design.
The 49-794 lens is coated with Edmund Optics' proprietary VIS-NIR coating (edm visnir0sp2002000), which is applied to both the front and back surfaces. This coating enhances the lens's performance in the VIS-NIR spectrum, reducing reflectance and improving transmission.
