This 88-787 optical lens, sourced from Edmund Optics, is a Spherical Lens of the Plano-Convex type, designed with a Circular base shape. The lens boasts a diameter of 4.5mm and a thickness at the edge of 1.8mm, while the center thickness measures 2.38mm. The Effective Focal Length (EFL) is 9mm, and the Radius of Curvature (R1) is 4.65mm. The Back Focal Length (BFL) is 7.41mm, and both the Inner and Outer Radius are 0mm.
The lens is made of n-BK7 Schott material, a popular choice for its high refractive index and low dispersion. It is designed to operate at a wavelength of 587.6nm. The lens features a YAG-BBAR coating on both the front and back surfaces, specifically the EDM YAGBBAR 500-1100 coating, which is designed for use in the 500-1100nm wavelength range. This coating enhances the lens's performance by reducing reflection and increasing transmission, making it an ideal choice for various optical applications.
