The SPX030AR.UF is a Plano-Convex Lens, a type of spherical lens, sourced from the renowned optical components manufacturer, MKS/Newport. This lens, with a base shape of a circle, is designed for use in the near-infrared (NIR) spectrum, specifically between 660 and 1380 nanometers.
The lens has a diameter of 25.4 millimeters and a thickness at the edge of 3 millimeters. The center thickness is slightly more, at 3.5 millimeters. The effective focal length (EFL) of this lens is 350 millimeters, making it suitable for applications that require a longer focal length. The front and back radii of the lens are 160.445 millimeters and 0 millimeters, respectively, indicating a plano-convex geometry.
The lens is made from UV Fused Silica (UVFS) material, identified as MAL-1965 in the vendor's catalog. This material is known for its excellent transparency in the UV and NIR regions, making it an ideal choice for applications in these spectral ranges.
The lens features a coating called "new aruf6601380" on both the front and back surfaces. This coating is specifically designed for use in the NIR spectrum, enhancing the lens's performance in this range.
