63-471 10.0mm Dia. x 10.0mm FL; Uncoated; Plano-Convex Lens
The 63-471 is a 10.0mm diameter, 10.0mm focal length Plano-Convex lens, sourced from the renowned optical components vendor, Edmund Optics. This uncoated lens is a part of their extensive spherical lens catalog, designed to cater to a wide range of optical applications.
The lens's geometry features a 1.45mm edge thickness and a 3.25mm center thickness, making it suitable for applications that require a balance between field of view and focus. The base shape is circular, ensuring consistent performance across the entire lens surface. The lens's effective focal length (EFL) is 10mm, providing a concentrated light beam for precise optical systems.
The lens is made from n-SF11 Schott glass, a high-index material known for its excellent optical properties. This material is particularly suitable for applications that require high dispersion and low auto-fluorescence. The lens is designed to operate at a wavelength of 587.6nm, making it suitable for a wide range of visible light applications.
Notably, this lens is uncoated, offering users the flexibility to apply their preferred coating based on their specific application requirements. However, users should be aware that uncoated lenses may have higher reflectivity and lower transmission compared to coated lenses.
