This 10mm diameter x 10mm focal length (FL) double-convex lens, sourced from Edmund Optics, is a high-quality optical component designed for use in the visible to near-infrared (VIS-NIR) spectrum, specifically between 400-1000nm.
The lens features a double-convex geometry, characterized by two spherical surfaces that curve outwards, creating a converging lens. This design is particularly useful for applications requiring image magnification or collimation of light. The lens has a diameter of 10mm and a thickness of 1.45mm at the edge, increasing to 3.5mm at the center, providing a robust and compact structure.
The lens is made from n-SF5 Schott, a high-index material known for its excellent optical properties. This material, combined with the lens's double-convex geometry, results in a back focal length (BFL) of 8.89mm and an effective focal length (EFL) of 10mm.
The lens is coated with a VIS-NIR coating, specifically the EDM VISNIR0SP2002000 coating, on both the front and back surfaces. This coating is designed to enhance the lens's performance in the VIS-NIR spectrum, reducing reflection and increasing transmission. The coating status is valid, and the lens is currently in stock, ensuring quick and reliable delivery.
