The 88-673-INK is a Plano-Convex lens, a type of spherical lens, sourced from Edmund Optics. This lens, with a base shape of a circle, has a diameter of 12.0mm and a thickness at the edge of 1.41mm. The center thickness is 3.0mm, and the effective focal length (EFL) is 18.0mm. The lens's front radius of curvature (R1) is 12.11mm, and the back focal length (BFL) is 16.22mm.
The lens is made from n-SF5 Schott, a high-quality optical material known for its excellent transmission properties in the visible spectrum. The lens is coated with EDM VIS EXT on both the front and back surfaces, enhancing its performance in the visible light range of 350-700nm.
This lens is inked, a process that involves applying a dye or ink to the lens to mark it for identification or tracking purposes. The ink does not affect the lens's optical performance but provides a useful identifier for inventory management or quality control.
Please note that the inner and outer radii of the lens are 0mm, indicating that this lens does not have any threading or other features for mounting or attaching it to other optical components. Users should ensure they have the necessary hardware or accessories to secure this lens in their intended application.
