This is a 25mm diameter germanium aspheric lens, catalog number 68-241, sourced from Edmund Optics. The lens is designed for infrared applications with a wavelength of 4000nm. It features an effective focal length (EFL) of 50mm and a numerical aperture (NA) of 0.25, making it suitable for a range of optical systems.
The lens is uncoated, which means it does not have any additional layers to enhance its optical properties. However, this also means that it may be more susceptible to environmental factors such as dust and moisture. The inner and outer radii of the lens are not specified, but the diameter is 25mm, and the edge thickness is 2.45mm.
The lens's geometry includes a center thickness of 3mm and a back focal length (BFL) of 48.44mm. The aspheric design helps to reduce spherical aberration and other optical aberrations, enhancing the overall image quality. The lens is made of germanium, a material known for its high refractive index and transparency in the infrared region.
