65-482 12.0mm Dia. x 48.0mm FL; Plano-Convex Lens Laser V-Coat 532nm
This is a 12.0mm diameter, 48.0mm focal length Plano-Convex lens, specifically designed for use with a 532nm wavelength. The lens is sourced from Edmund Optics, a reputable vendor known for their high-quality optical components.
The lens is made from n-BK7 Schott, a popular optical glass due to its excellent optical properties and wide transparency range. The Plano-Convex geometry, where one side is flat and the other is curved, is ideal for a variety of applications, particularly where a collimated beam is required.
The lens features a front and back coating of edm las v-coat 532, which is designed to enhance the lens' performance in laser applications. The coating helps to reduce reflection and increase transmission, thereby improving the efficiency and quality of the laser beam.
The lens has a center thickness of 2.5mm and an edge thickness of 1.76mm, providing a good balance between durability and optical performance. The inner and outer radii are 0mm, indicating a sharp curvature on the convex side.
The lens's effective focal length (EFL) is 48mm, which is the distance from the lens at which a collimated beam of light will come to a focus. This information is crucial when designing optical systems that require a specific beam diameter or focus.
