88-638 6.0mm Dia. x 7.5mm FL; VIS-EXT Coated Plano-Convex Lens VIS-EXT 350-700nm
The 88-638 is a Plano-Convex lens, a type of spherical lens, sourced from Edmund Optics. This lens has a base shape of a circle and a diameter of 6.0mm, making it suitable for a wide range of optical applications. The lens has a thickness of 1.68mm at the edge and 2.5mm at the center, providing a decent depth for various setups.
The lens boasts an effective focal length (EFL) of 7.5mm, which is the distance from the lens's center to its focal point. This EFL, combined with the lens's diameter, allows for a decent field of view and depth of field, making it suitable for applications that require a balance between these two factors.
The lens is made from n-sf11 Schott, a high-index glass material known for its excellent optical properties. This material, coupled with the lens's geometry, provides high dispersion and low chromatic aberration, making it ideal for applications that require high image quality and color accuracy.
The lens is coated with EDM VIS EXT on both the front and back surfaces. This coating enhances the lens's transmission in the visible spectrum (350-700nm), making it suitable for applications that require high light transmission and minimal reflection.
