The 63-689 is a high-quality double-convex lens, boasting a 40mm diameter and a focal length of 120mm. This lens is sourced from the reputable vendor, Edmund Optics, and is designed for use within the visible to near-infrared spectrum, spanning 400-1000nm.
The lens is constructed from Schott's n-BK7 glass, a material renowned for its excellent optical properties, including a high Abbe number and low dispersion. This makes the lens ideal for applications that require high image quality and minimal chromatic aberration.
The lens features a spherical shape, with radii of curvature of 122.83mm for the first surface and -122.83mm for the second. This design results in a double-convex lens, which is particularly effective at focusing light. The lens has an edge thickness of 3.72mm and a center thickness of 7mm, contributing to its robustness and durability.
The 63-689 lens is coated with Edmund Optics' VIS-NIR coating (edm visnir0sp2002000) on both the front and back surfaces. This coating is designed to enhance the lens's performance within the visible to near-infrared spectrum, improving transmission and reducing reflection.
