10mm Diameter x 15mm FL VIS-NIR Coated Double-Convex Lens
This is a 10mm diameter x 15mm focal length double-convex lens, designed for use in the visible to near-infrared spectrum (400-1000nm). The lens is sourced from Edmund Optics, a reputable vendor known for their high-quality optical components.
The lens features a double-convex geometry, meaning it has two spherical surfaces that curve outwards. This design is often used to achieve a high level of refraction, making it ideal for imaging applications. The base shape of the lens is circular, ensuring symmetry and consistency in its optical properties.
The lens has a diameter of 10mm and a thickness at the edge of 1.77mm. The center thickness is 3.5mm, providing structural rigidity while minimizing unnecessary weight. The effective focal length (EFL) of the lens is 15mm, which is the distance over which the lens forms a parallel beam of light when a point source is placed at its focal point.
The lens is made from n-BK7 Schott, a popular optical glass known for its excellent optical properties and chemical durability. 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 visible to near-infrared spectrum, reducing reflection and increasing transmission.
