The 88-697 is a Plano-Convex lens, a type of spherical lens, sourced from Edmund Optics. This lens boasts a diameter of 15.0mm and a focal length of 30.0mm, making it a compact yet powerful optical component. The lens is made from n-BK7 Schott, a high-quality optical glass known for its excellent transparency and low dispersion.
The lens features a front and back coating of edm vis ext, a type of anti-reflective coating designed to enhance transmission in the visible spectrum (350-700nm). This coating reduces surface reflections, improving the overall efficiency and quality of the lens.
The geometry of the lens is carefully designed with a thickness of 1.25mm at the edge and 3.18mm at the center. The lens's inner and outer radii are 0mm, and the effective focal length (EFL) is 30mm. The lens's front surface has a radius of curvature of 15.52mm, and the back focal length (BFL) is 27.9mm.
This lens is a versatile and reliable choice for various applications requiring high-quality optical transmission in the visible spectrum. Its compact size and robust construction make it suitable for use in a wide range of devices and systems.
