The KBC085AR.18 is a high-quality double-concave lens, designed and manufactured by MKS/Newport. This lens, with a diameter of 50.8 mm, is specifically engineered for use within the infrared spectrum, between 1000 and 1550 nanometers.
The lens features a significant focal length of -75 mm, making it ideal for a wide range of applications that require precise focusing of infrared light. The KBC085AR.18 is constructed from N-BK7 Schott glass, a material well-known for its excellent optical properties and versatility.
The lens geometry is characterized by its concave-concave shape, with a central thickness of 2.5 mm and an edge thickness of 9.36 mm. This design ensures efficient light transmission and minimal distortion. The lens also boasts an inner radius of 0 mm and an outer radius of 0 mm, further enhancing its optical performance.
The KBC085AR.18 is equipped with a New AR-18 coating on both the front and back surfaces. This anti-reflective coating is specifically designed to reduce surface reflections and increase transmission within the infrared spectrum, further enhancing the lens's performance and utility.
