KPX103-C 25.4 mm Dia. x 175 mm FL; MgF2 Coated; Plano-Convex Lens MgF2 400-700nm
The KPX103-C is a Plano-Convex lens, a type of spherical lens, sourced from MKS/Newport. This lens, with a base shape of a circle, is designed for use in the visible light spectrum, specifically optimized for the wavelength of 589 nm. The lens is made from n-BK7 Schott, a popular optical glass due to its excellent optical properties and relatively low cost.
The lens has a diameter of 25.4 mm and a thickness at the edge of 3 mm. The center thickness is slightly more at 3.896 mm. The effective focal length (EFL) of the lens is 175 mm, and the radius of curvature (R1) is 90.44 mm. The back focal length (BFL) is 172.43 mm, and the inner radius is 0 mm.
The KPX103-C is coated with MgF2, a broadband anti-reflection coating, on both the front and back surfaces. This coating enhances the lens's performance by reducing reflection and increasing transmission in the spectral range of 400-700 nm.
