The 63-696 is a high-quality achromatic doublet lens, sourced from the renowned optical components vendor, Edmund Optics. This lens, with a 10 mm diameter, is designed for use in the visible spectrum, specifically between 400-700nm, making it suitable for a wide range of optical applications.
The lens features a multicoated front and back surface with MgF2, a standard curve coating that enhances its light transmission capabilities and reduces surface reflections. The achromatic doublet design, which combines two different types of glass (N-BK7 and N-SF5), effectively corrects chromatic aberrations, ensuring sharp and clear images.
The lens has an effective focal length (EFL) of 30mm, providing a decent magnification for various applications. The geometry of the lens includes a thickness of 4.48mm at the edge, a center thickness of 3.5mm, and a center thickness 'a' of 2mm. The lens's inner and outer radii are 0, indicating a simple, circular shape.
