The 63-627 is a high-quality double-convex lens, boasting a 5mm diameter and a 10mm focal length. This lens is sourced from Edmund Optics, a renowned vendor known for their extensive catalog of optical elements. The lens is made from n-BK7 Schott, a popular optical glass due to its excellent optical properties and versatility.
The lens features a double-convex geometry, characterized by its two spherical surfaces that curve outwards. This design allows for a high refractive power, making it ideal for applications that require significant light bending. The lens has an edge thickness of 1.36mm and a center thickness of 2mm, providing robustness and durability.
The 63-627 lens is coated with EDM NIR-I std curve on both the front and back surfaces. This coating enhances its performance in the near-infrared region, specifically between 600nm and 1050nm. It ensures high transmission rates, low reflectance, and improved resistance to environmental factors, making it suitable for various applications, including biomedical imaging, machine vision, and surveillance systems.
The lens has an effective focal length (EFL) of 10mm, which is the distance from the lens's optical center to the point where the light rays converge. This EFL, combined with the lens's diameter, provides a wide field of view and high light-gathering capabilities, making it suitable for wide-angle applications.
