The 69-323 is a Plano-Convex spherical lens, a type of optical element characterized by its curved convex surface and flat plane surface. This lens, sourced from Edmund Optics, boasts a 9.0mm diameter and a focal length of 15.0mm, making it suitable for a wide range of applications.
The lens is crafted from n-BK7 Schott, a high-quality optical glass known for its excellent transparency and low dispersion. This material ensures that the lens delivers sharp, clear images with minimal chromatic aberration.
The 69-323 features a front and back coating of Edmund Optics Laser V-Coat 405, a specialized coating designed to enhance the lens' performance in laser applications. This coating improves the lens' durability, reduces surface reflections, and increases transmission, making it ideal for use with 405nm lasers.
The lens' geometry includes a thickness of 1.56mm at the edge and 3.0mm at the center, providing a robust structure that can withstand the rigors of various applications. The inner and outer radii are 0mm, indicating a uniform curvature across the lens' surface.
