The 63-517-INK is a Plano-Convex lens, a type of spherical lens, sourced from Edmund Optics. This lens, with a diameter of 15.0mm, is designed for use in the near-infrared (NIR) spectrum, specifically between 600-1050nm. The lens features a front and back coating of EDM NIR-I STD CURVE, providing enhanced performance in the NIR range.
The lens has a thickness of 1.52mm at the edge and 3.8mm at the center, with an effective focal length (EFL) of 20.0mm. The radius of curvature for the first surface (R1) is 13.46mm, and the back focal length (BFL) is 17.74mm. The lens is made from N-SF5 Schott, a material known for its excellent transmission properties in the NIR spectrum.
This lens is inked, a process that aids in identifying and handling the lens during assembly and use. The lens is circular in base shape, making it suitable for a wide range of optical applications. The detailed specifications and high-quality coating make this lens a reliable choice for applications in the NIR spectrum.
