This is a high-quality double-convex lens, sourced from the renowned optical components vendor, Edmund Optics. The lens, identified as the 63-564 model, is designed with a 5mm diameter and a focal length of 15mm, making it suitable for a wide range of optical applications.
The lens is made from the high-grade material, n-BK7 Schott, which is known for its excellent optical properties, including a high Abbe number and low dispersion. This makes the lens ideal for use in applications where high image quality and low chromatic aberration are critical.
The lens features a standard MgF2 coating on both the front and back surfaces. This coating enhances the lens's performance by reducing reflection and increasing transmission in the 400-700nm wavelength range. The coating also provides excellent environmental resistance, making the lens suitable for use in various environmental conditions.
The lens's geometry is meticulously designed, with an edge thickness of 1.58mm and a center thickness of 2mm. The lens's front and back radii are 15.16mm and -15.16mm, respectively, while the back focal length is 14.33mm. The lens's inner and outer radii are both 0mm, indicating a uniform curvature throughout.
