The KPX187AR.14 is a Plano-Convex Spherical Lens, sourced from the reputable vendor MKS/Newport. This lens boasts a diameter of 50.8 mm and a focal length of 100 mm, making it suitable for a wide range of optical applications. The lens is fabricated from N-BK7 Schott, a popular optical glass due to its excellent optical properties and versatility.
The lens geometry is characterized by a thickness of 3 mm at the edge and 9.673 mm at the center. The inner radius is zero, indicating a plano surface on one side and a curved surface on the other. The effective focal length (EFL) is 100 mm, and the radius of curvature (R1) is 51.68 mm. The back focal length (BFL) is 93.62 mm.
The KPX187AR.14 lens features AR coating on both the front and back surfaces. This anti-reflective coating is designed to operate within the wavelength range of 430-700 nm, reducing surface reflections and improving transmission in this spectral range. The lens is available for purchase through the Newport website, and the link provided indicates that it is currently in stock.
