The 67-242 is a 50mm diameter, 250mm focal length plano-convex lens, specifically designed for use within the visible to near-infrared (VIS-NIR) spectrum, spanning 400-1000nm. This lens is sourced from Edmund Optics, a reputable vendor known for their high-quality optical components.
The lens boasts a geometry characterized by a 50mm diameter, 4.24mm edge thickness, and a 7mm center thickness. The front surface has a radius of curvature (R1) of 114.62mm, resulting in a back focal length (BFL) of 245.21mm. The lens is made from fused silica (mal-1965), ensuring durability and resistance to environmental factors.
The 67-242 lens features a VIS-NIR coating, denoted as 'edm visnir0sp2002000' on both the front and back surfaces. This coating enhances the lens' performance within the VIS-NIR spectrum by reducing surface reflections and improving transmission.
