KBX073AR.14 25.4 mm Dia. x 175 mm FL; AR coated; Double-Convex Lens AR 430-700nm
This is a high-quality Double-Convex Lens, sourced from the reputable vendor MKS/Newport. The lens, identified as KBX073AR.14, boasts a diameter of 25.4 mm and a focal length of 175 mm, making it suitable for a wide range of optical applications.
The lens is made from the renowned material n-BK7 Schott, a borosilicate crown glass known for its excellent optical properties. This material ensures high transmission in the visible spectrum, making it ideal for applications where light transmission is critical.
The KBX073AR.14 features anti-reflection (AR) coatings on both the front and back surfaces. These coatings, specifically the new AR-14 fromfigure, are designed to reduce surface reflections and increase light transmission, particularly in the 430-700nm wavelength range. This makes the lens particularly suitable for applications where high light transmission and minimal reflection are required.
The lens has a center thickness of 3.896 mm and an edge thickness of 3 mm, providing robustness and durability. The inner and outer radii are 0, indicating a spherical shape, which is common in optical lenses due to its ease of manufacturing and excellent optical performance.
