This is a high-quality Double-Convex Lens, sourced from the renowned optical component vendor, MKS/Newport. The lens, identified as KBX019AR.18, is designed for use within the infrared spectrum, specifically between 1000nm and 1550nm, making it ideal for applications such as fiber optics, thermal imaging, and other infrared-based technologies.
The lens features a diameter of 6.35mm and a focal length of 25.4mm, providing a substantial depth of field for various applications. The lens is constructed from N-BK7 Schott glass, a material well-known for its excellent optical properties, including high homogeneity and low auto-fluorescence.
The KBX019AR.18 lens is coated with a new AR-18 coating on both the front and back surfaces. This anti-reflective coating enhances the lens' performance by reducing surface reflections and increasing transmission within the specified infrared spectrum.
The lens geometry is spherical, with a center thickness of 3.39mm and an edge thickness of 3mm, providing a robust and compact design. The lens is available directly from the vendor and is currently in stock, ensuring quick delivery for your optical project needs.
