The KBX034AR.14 is a high-quality double-convex lens, sourced from the reputable vendor MKS/Newport. This lens, with a diameter of 12.7 mm and a focal length of 50.2 mm, is designed for use in the visible spectrum, specifically optimized for wavelengths between 430 and 700 nm.
The lens is made from N-BK7 Schott, a popular borosilicate glass known for its excellent optical properties and durability. The base shape of the lens is circular, and it features a double-convex geometry, with radii of curvature of 51.234 mm for the first surface and -51.234 mm for the second surface. This geometry results in a back focal length of 48.93 mm and an effective focal length of 50.2 mm.
The KBX034AR.14 is coated with a new AR-14 coating on both the front and back surfaces. This anti-reflective coating is designed to minimize surface reflections, thereby improving transmission and contrast. The coating is specifically designed for use in the 430-700 nm range, ensuring optimal performance in the intended application.
