This optical component is a 15mm diameter x 45mm focal length double-convex lens, designed for visible light applications with a wavelength of 587.6nm. Sourced from the reputable vendor Edmund Optics, the lens boasts a high-quality n-BK7 Schott material, ensuring excellent optical performance.
The lens features a double-convex geometry with a 45.99mm radius of curvature on both the front and rear surfaces. This geometry results in a back focal length of 44mm and an effective focal length of 45mm. The lens has a thickness of 1.77mm at the edge and 3mm at the center, providing sufficient structural integrity for various applications.
The lens's surfaces are coated with EDM VIS-0 standard curve coatings on both the front and back. These coatings enhance the lens's performance by reducing surface reflections and improving transmission within the specified wavelength range of 425-675nm. The coating also offers abrasion resistance, ensuring the lens maintains its optical properties over time.
