The 63-791 is a high-quality plano-convex lens, sourced from the renowned optical component vendor, Edmund Optics. This lens boasts a 9mm diameter and a focal length of 27mm, making it suitable for a wide range of applications.
The lens is constructed from fused silica, a material known for its excellent optical properties, including high transparency across a broad spectrum. Specifically, this lens is designed to transmit light in the visible (VIS) and near-infrared (NIR) range, from 400 to 1000nm, making it a versatile choice for many optical systems.
The 63-791 lens features a spherical shape, with a radius of curvature of 12.38mm on the front surface. This shape, combined with the lens's high-quality polish, ensures excellent image quality and minimal optical aberrations. The lens has a thickness of 1.15mm at the edge and 2mm at the center, providing robustness and durability.
The lens is coated with a VIS-NIR coating, specifically the edm visnir0sp2002000 coating, on both the front and back surfaces. This coating enhances the lens's performance by reducing surface reflections and increasing transmission, thereby improving the overall efficiency of the optical system.
