The 63-537 is a high-quality spherical lens, boasting a double-convex design and a 10mm diameter. This lens is sourced from the reputable optical vendor, Edmund Optics, and is available for immediate purchase. The lens's focal length is 20mm, making it suitable for a wide range of optical applications.
The lens is uncoated, offering a bare, unaltered glass surface. This can be advantageous in certain applications where the introduction of a coating might interfere with the desired optical properties. However, it's important to note that uncoated lenses may be more susceptible to surface damage and may not perform as optimally in high-light conditions due to internal reflections.
The lens's geometry is meticulously crafted, with a thickness of 1.25mm at the edge and 2.5mm at the center. The effective focal length (EFL) is 20mm, and the back focal length (BFL) is 19.16mm. The first radius of curvature (R1) is 20.24mm, and the second radius of curvature (R2) is -20.24mm. The lens is made from n-BK7 Schott, a popular optical glass known for its excellent optical properties and versatility.
This lens is designed to work optimally at a wavelength of 587.6nm. It's important to ensure that the lens's specifications align with the requirements of your specific application to ensure optimal performance.
