This is a Plano-Concave Spherical Lens, type HO-PVL25-40B, manufactured by Holmarc Opto-Mechatronics. The lens has a circular base shape with a diameter of 25mm and a center thickness of 2.5mm. The effective focal length (EFL) of this lens is -1000mm, making it a negative or diverging lens.
The lens is made of N-BK7, a popular optical glass from Schott, known for its excellent optical properties and high damage threshold. The lens's inner and outer radii are both zero, indicating a plano-concave shape.
This lens is designed for use in the wavelength range of 587.6nm, which is near the center of the visible light spectrum. It comes with a BBAR (Broadband Anti-Reflection) coating, specifically designed for the 400-700nm range, which enhances its transmission characteristics and reduces surface reflections.
The BBAR coating on both the front and back surfaces of the lens is Holmarc's BBAR 0 AOI coating, which is optimized for zero angle of incidence. This coating provides high transmission and low reflection across the entire specified wavelength range.
