The KBX088AR.16 is a high-quality double-convex lens, designed and manufactured by MKS/Newport. This lens boasts a diameter of 25.4 mm and a focal length of 1000 mm, making it suitable for a wide range of applications. The lens is made from N-BK7 Schott, a popular optical glass due to its excellent optical properties and chemical durability.
The KBX088AR.16 features a double-convex geometry, with radii of curvature of 1033.074 mm for the first surface and -1033.074 mm for the second surface. This geometry results in a back focal length of 998.95 mm and an effective focal length of 1000 mm. The lens has a central thickness of 3.156 mm and an edge thickness of 3 mm, providing robustness and resistance to damage.
This lens is coated with New AR-16 fromfigure on both the front and back surfaces. This anti-reflective coating is specifically designed for the near-infrared (NIR) spectrum, covering wavelengths from 650 nm to 1000 nm. The coating significantly reduces surface reflections, improving transmission and enhancing the overall performance of the lens.
