The lens is constructed from n-BK7 Schott, a popular optical glass due to its excellent optical properties and versatility. The base shape of the lens is circular, and it features a spherical geometry. The diameter of the lens is 5mm, with a thickness at the edge of 1.58mm and a center thickness of 2mm. The effective focal length (EFL) is 15mm, and the radii of curvature are 15.16mm for the first surface and -15.16mm for the second surface. The back focal length (BFL) is 14.33mm, and both the inner and outer radii are 0mm.
The lens is coated with edm visnir0sp2002000 on both the front and back surfaces. This coating enhances the lens's performance in the visible (VIS) and near-infrared (NIR) spectrum, specifically within the 400-1000nm range. This makes the lens suitable for a wide range of applications, including but not limited to, machine vision, scientific research, and industrial inspection.
