63-532 5mm Dia. x 15mm FL; Uncoated; Double-Convex Lens
The 63-532 is a 5mm diameter, double-convex lens with a 15mm focal length, sourced from the renowned optical components vendor, Edmund Optics. This lens, designed for general-purpose use, is uncoated and features a spherical geometry, making it suitable for a wide range of optical applications.
The lens's base shape is circular, with a thickness of 1.58mm at the edge and 2mm at the center. The effective focal length (EFL) is 15mm, and the radii of curvature are 15.16mm for the first surface and -15.16mm for the second surface. The back focal length (BFL) is 14.33mm, and both the inner and outer radii are 0mm.
The lens is made of n-BK7 Schott, a popular optical glass known for its excellent optical properties. It is designed to work optimally at a wavelength of 587.6nm. The lens's shape is spherical, a common choice for its ease of manufacturing and versatility. The absence of coating makes this lens suitable for applications where coating is not required or desirable.
