88-736 25.0mm Dia. x 500.0mm FL; VIS-EXT Coated Plano-Convex Lens VIS-EXT 350-700nm
This is a 25.0mm diameter, 500.0mm focal length Plano-Convex lens, offered by Edmund Optics. The lens is made of n-BK7 Schott material, a popular choice for its high refractive index and low dispersion. The lens's geometry includes a 2.9mm edge thickness and a 3.2mm center thickness, providing robustness and stability.
The lens features a VIS-EXT coating on both the front and back surfaces, designed to enhance transmission within the 350-700nm visible spectrum. This coating improves the lens's performance in transmitting light, reducing unwanted reflections and increasing the overall efficiency of the optical system.
The lens's base shape is circular, and its shape is spherical, which is a common geometry for lenses due to its ease of manufacturing and good optical performance. The lens's inner and outer radii are both zero, indicating a plano surface on one side and a curved surface on the other. The lens's effective focal length (EFL) is 500.0mm, and the back focal length (BFL) is 497.89mm.
This lens is a great option for applications that require a high-quality, visible light lens with a long focal length. Its VIS-EXT coating makes it suitable for use in systems where high transmission within the visible spectrum is required.
