This KBX034AR.16 lens, sourced from MKS/Newport, is a high-quality optical component designed for use in the near-infrared (NIR) spectrum, specifically between 650 and 1000nm. It is a spherical lens, featuring a double-convex geometry, which is known for its ability to focus light efficiently.
The lens has a diameter of 12.7mm and a center thickness of 3.79mm, with the edge thickness measuring 3mm. The effective focal length (EFL) of this lens is 50.2mm, making it suitable for applications that require moderate magnification. The front and back surfaces of the lens are coated with AR-16, a proprietary anti-reflective coating from Newport, which enhances its performance in the NIR spectrum by reducing surface reflections.
The lens is made from N-BK7 glass, a popular material in optical systems due to its excellent optical properties and wide transparency range. The lens's inner and outer radii are 0mm, indicating a symmetrical design. The back shape is circular, adding to its versatility in various optical setups.
