63-578 15mm Dia. x 60mm FL; MgF2 Coated; Double-Convex Lens MgF2 400-700nm
The 63-578 is a high-quality double-convex lens, 15mm in diameter and 60mm in focal length, sourced from the renowned optical vendor, Edmund Optics. This lens is made from the premium material, n-BK7 Schott, ensuring excellent optical performance.
The lens features a double-convex geometry, with radii of curvature of 61.5mm for both the front and back surfaces. This design results in a high refractive power, making it ideal for a wide range of applications where image magnification and resolution are critical. The lens has an effective focal length (EFL) of 60mm and a back focal length (BFL) of 59mm, providing a wide field of view and excellent focus capabilities.
The 63-578 lens is coated with EDM MgF2 std curve on both the front and back surfaces. This coating enhances the lens's performance by reducing surface reflections and increasing transmission in the spectral range of 400-700nm. The coating is designed to provide a standard curve, ensuring consistent performance across different lenses.
The lens has a thickness of 2.08mm at the edge and 3mm at the center, providing robustness and durability. Despite its robust construction, the lens remains lightweight, making it suitable for portable and handheld devices.
