This is a 10.0mm diameter, plano-convex lens with a focal length of 50.0mm, specifically designed for use with a 1550nm 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 chemical durability. The plano-convex geometry, where one side is flat and the other is curved, is ideal for a wide range of applications, including laser systems and imaging applications.
The lens has a center thickness of 3.0mm and an edge thickness of 2.51mm, providing a robust structure while maintaining a low profile. The effective focal length (EFL) is 50.0mm, which is the distance from the lens's center to the focal point. The radius of curvature (R1) is 25.84mm, and the back focal length (BFL) is 48.02mm.
The lens features a front and back coating of EDM Las V-Coat 1550, a specialized coating designed for laser applications at the 1550nm wavelength. This coating enhances the lens's performance by reducing reflection and increasing transmission, thereby improving the overall efficiency of the optical system.
