APAC13 12.5 mm Dia. N-LAK8/N-SF57 Aspherical Achromatic Doublet; EFL=20mm 425-675nm
The APAC13 is a high-performance lens from MKS/Newport, designed for applications that require superior optical quality within the 425-675nm wavelength range. This lens boasts an effective focal length (EFL) of 20mm and a 12.5 mm diameter, making it suitable for a wide range of optical systems.
The lens is constructed as an achromatic doublet, featuring two different glass types to minimize chromatic aberration. The first element is made of N-LAK8 from Schott, while the second element is made of N-SF57 from Schott. This combination ensures that the lens delivers sharp, clear images with minimal color fringing.
The APAC13 features a unique geometry, with a center thickness of 6.5mm, an edge thickness of 5.01mm, and a radius of curvature of 13.3mm for the first surface and -20mm for the second surface. This aspherical design further reduces optical aberrations, providing superior image quality.
The lens is coated with New Vis-0 on both the front and back surfaces, enhancing its transmission and protecting it from environmental hazards. This coating ensures the lens delivers optimal performance in a variety of conditions.
