The KBX013AR.14 is a high-quality spherical lens, boasting a convex-convex base shape and a circular design. This lens, sourced from the reputable vendor MKS/Newport, is characterized by its 6.35 mm diameter and a focal length of 12.7 mm. The lens's edge thickness is 3 mm, while its center thickness measures 3.82 mm, providing a robust structure for various applications.
The lens's effective focal length (EFL) is 12.7 mm, and its first and second radii of curvature (R1 and R2) are 12.44 mm and -12.44 mm, respectively. The back focal length (BFL) is 11.37 mm, and both the inner and outer radii are 0 mm. These specifications make the lens suitable for a wide range of optical systems.
The lens is made from n-BK7 Schott, a popular optical glass due to its excellent optical properties and chemical durability. The wavelength for this lens is 589 nm.
The KBX013AR.14 lens features AR coating on both the front and back surfaces. This anti-reflective coating, specifically the new AR-14 fromfigure, enhances the lens's performance by reducing surface reflections and increasing transmission in the 430-700 nm wavelength range.
