The 88-724 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 25.0mm, making it suitable for a wide range of optical applications. The lens's thickness at the edge is 1.68mm, while its center thickness is 4.9mm, providing a solid structure for efficient light transmission.
The effective focal length (EFL) of this lens is 50.0mm, which is the distance from the lens's center to the focal point where light rays converge. The first radius of curvature (R1) is 25.84mm, and the back focal length (BFL) is 46.75mm. The lens does not have an inner radius or an outer radius.
The lens is made of n-BK7 Schott, a high-quality optical glass known for its excellent transparency and low dispersion. This material is ideal for applications that require high-precision optics. The lens is coated with EDM VIS EXT on both the front and back, which extends its usable wavelength range from 350 to 700nm. This coating enhances the lens's performance by reducing surface reflections and increasing transmission.
