Discover the 88-845 Plano-Convex Lens, a high-quality optical component designed for a wide range of applications. This lens, sourced from the renowned vendor Edmund Optics, boasts a 12.7mm diameter and a focal length of 15.0mm, making it a versatile choice for various projects.
The lens is crafted from the esteemed N-BK7 Schott material, a borosilicate glass known for its excellent optical properties, including low dispersion and high homogeneity. This ensures minimal chromatic aberration and maintains image quality, making it suitable for use in imaging systems, beam shaping, and other applications where high-fidelity optical transmission is crucial.
The lens features a plano-convex geometry, with a flat front surface and a curved back surface. The radius of curvature of the back surface is 7.75mm, and the back focal length is 11.53mm. This geometry allows for efficient light collection and focusing, making it ideal for use in laser systems, optical spectroscopy, and other applications where precise light manipulation is required.
The 88-845 lens is coated with YAG-BBAR, a highly durable and broadband anti-reflective coating that enhances its performance. This coating, designed for the wavelength range of 500-1100nm, reduces surface reflections and increases transmission, thereby improving the overall efficiency and quality of the optical system.
