This is a Plano-Convex Lens, sourced from the renowned optical components vendor, Edmund Optics. The lens, identified as the 62-588 model, boasts a diameter of 25.4mm and a focal length of 76.2mm, making it suitable for a wide range of optical applications.
The lens is crafted from the high-quality material, N-BK7 Schott, a borosilicate glass known for its excellent optical properties. This material ensures high transmission and low dispersion, making it ideal for use in the 600-1050nm near-infrared (NIR) spectrum.
The lens features a standard EDM NIR-I coating on both the front and back surfaces. This coating enhances the lens's performance in the NIR spectrum by reducing surface reflections and increasing transmission. The coating is part of Edmund Optics' standard curve, ensuring consistent performance across their product line.
The lens's geometry is another notable feature. It has a thickness of 1.9mm at the edge and 4mm at the center, providing a balanced profile for efficient light transmission. The lens's inner and outer radii are 0, indicating a simple, straightforward design that's easy to integrate into optical systems.
