The KPX028AR.18 is a Plano-Convex Lens, a type of spherical lens, sourced from MKS/Newport. This lens, with a diameter of 6.35 mm, is designed for use in the infrared spectrum, specifically between 1000nm and 1550nm.
The lens features a plano-convex geometry, meaning one side is flat (plano) and the other is curved (convex). The curvature of the convex side is defined by a radius of 39.07 mm. The lens has a thickness of 3 mm at the edge and 3.129 mm at the center. The effective focal length (EFL) of this lens is 75.6 mm, and the back focal length (BFL) is 73.53 mm.
The KPX028AR.18 is made from N-BK7 Schott, a popular optical glass due to its excellent optical properties and relatively low cost. The lens is coated with New AR-18, a broadband anti-reflective coating that reduces surface reflections and increases transmission in the spectral range of 1000-1550nm.
