KPX025-C 6.35 mm Dia. x 50.2 mm FL; MgF2 Coated; Plano-Convex Lens MgF2 400-700nm
The KPX025-C is a high-quality Plano-Convex lens, sourced from the renowned optical components manufacturer, MKS/Newport. This lens, with a diameter of 6.35 mm, is designed for use in the visible spectrum, specifically between 400-700nm, making it suitable for a wide range of optical applications.
The lens features a Plano-Convex geometry, which means one side is flat (Plano), and the other side is curved (Convex). This design allows for efficient light collection and focusing. The lens has a thickness of 3mm at the edge and 3.195mm at the center, providing a solid structure while maintaining a low profile.
The KPX025-C lens is made from N-BK7 Schott, a popular optical glass due to its excellent optical properties and versatility. The lens's front and back surfaces are coated with MgF2, a broadband anti-reflective coating that reduces surface reflections and increases transmission, enhancing the lens's performance in its designated spectral range.
The lens has an effective focal length (EFL) of 50.2mm, which is the distance from the lens's center to the focal point when the lens is used in air. The radius of curvature (R1) is 25.943mm, and the back focal length (BFL) is 48.09mm, providing detailed specifications for precise optical system design.
