The KPX112AR.18 is a Plano-Convex Lens, a type of spherical lens, sourced from MKS/Newport. This lens boasts a diameter of 25.4 mm and a focal length of 300 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 versatility.
The lens's geometry is defined by a radius of curvature of 155.04 mm on the convex side, resulting in a back focal length of 297.67 mm. The edge thickness of the lens is 3 mm, while the center thickness is 3.521 mm. The effective focal length (EFL) is the same as the focal length, indicating that the lens is a thin lens.
The KPX112AR.18 lens features a new AR-18 coating on both the front and back surfaces. This anti-reflective coating is designed to operate within the infrared spectrum, specifically between 1000 and 1550 nm. This coating enhances the lens's performance by reducing surface reflections, thereby increasing transmission and minimizing optical losses.
