The SBX055 is a spherical lens with a base shape of a circle, sourced from the reputable vendor MKS/Newport. This lens is uncoated, making it suitable for applications where coating is not a requirement. The lens features a diameter of 50.8 mm and a thickness at the edge of 3 mm, ensuring durability and stability. The center thickness is 10.304 mm, providing a balanced structure for efficient light transmission.
The effective focal length (EFL) of this lens is 100 mm, making it ideal for applications that require moderate magnification. The first radius of curvature (R1) is 90.153 mm, and the second radius of curvature (R2) is -90.153 mm, indicating a double-convex lens design. The back focal length (BFL) is 96.4 mm, which should be considered when positioning the lens in an optical system.
The lens is made from UVFS material with the ID 1965, and it is designed to work optimally with a wavelength of 589 nm. This material is known for its excellent optical properties, making it a popular choice for various applications. The lens's shape is spherical, which is a common choice due to its ease of manufacturing and good optical performance.
