63-562 5mm Dia. x 5mm FL; MgF2 Coated; Double-Convex Lens MgF2 400-700nm
This is a 5mm diameter, double-convex lens, with a focal length of 5mm, sourced from Edmund Optics. The lens is made from n-SF5 Schott material, a high-index glass known for its excellent optical properties. It is coated with MgF2 on both the front and back surfaces, which is a standard coating that provides high transmission in the 400-700nm spectral range.
The lens has a thickness of 1.44mm at the edge and 2.5mm at the center. The first radius of curvature (R1) is 6.18mm, and the second radius of curvature (R2) is -6.18mm, indicating a strongly converging lens. The back focal length (BFL) is 4.19mm, and the effective focal length (EFL) is also 5mm. The lens has no inner or outer radius, indicating a uniform thickness.
This lens is suitable for use in a wide range of applications, including imaging systems, beam shaping, and optical interconnects. Its high transmission and strong convergence make it an ideal choice for focusing light in tight spots or for use in high-resolution imaging systems.
