88-698 15.0mm Dia. x 40.0mm FL; VIS-EXT Coated Plano-Convex Lens VIS-EXT 350-700nm
The 88-698 is a Plano-Convex lens, a type of spherical lens, sourced from Edmund Optics. This lens has a diameter of 15.0mm and a focal length of 40.0mm, making it suitable for a variety of optical applications. 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 VIS-EXT coating on both the front and back surfaces. This coating is designed to enhance the lens's performance in the visible spectrum, specifically between 350-700nm. The coating helps to reduce surface reflections, improving the overall transmission of light through the lens.
The geometry of the lens includes a thickness of 1.59mm at the edge and 3.0mm at the center. The inner radius is 0mm, and the outer radius is also 0mm, indicating a flat surface on the uncoated side of the lens. The lens's effective focal length (EFL) is 40.0mm, and the back focal length (BFL) is 38.02mm.
