The 88-998 is a 5.0mm diameter, plano-convex spherical lens with a 10.0mm focal length, specifically designed for use with a 633nm wavelength. This lens is sourced from Edmund Optics, a reputable vendor known for their high-quality optical components.
The lens is made from n-BK7 Schott glass, a popular material due to its excellent optical properties and versatility. It has a center thickness of 1.64mm and an edge thickness of 1.0mm, providing a robust and durable structure. The lens's base shape is circular, ensuring uniform light distribution and minimal distortion.
The 88-998 features a front and back coating of EDMLAS V-Coat 633, a specialized coating that enhances laser damage threshold and provides excellent transmission at the specified wavelength. This coating ensures optimal performance and longevity, making it suitable for demanding applications.
The lens's geometry includes an inner radius of 0mm and an outer radius of 0mm, indicating a uniform curvature. The effective focal length (EFL) is 10.0mm, which, combined with the lens's diameter, allows for a wide range of applications.
