The ZNPX14 is a Plano-Convex lens, a type of spherical lens, sourced from MKS/Newport. This lens boasts a base shape of a circle and is designed for use in the infrared spectrum, specifically at a wavelength of 10600 nm. The lens is uncoated, which means it does not have any additional layers to enhance or alter its optical properties.
The lens has a diameter of 25.4 mm and a thickness at the edge of 1.5 mm. The center thickness is 2.999 mm, providing a decent balance between weight and optical performance. The effective focal length (EFL) of the lens is 150 mm, which is the distance from the lens's center to the focal point when the lens is imaging an object at infinity.
The lens's inner radius is 0, indicating that it is a plano-convex lens, meaning one side is flat (plano) and the other side is curved (convex). The radius of curvature of the curved side is 210.419 mm. This curvature contributes to the lens's focusing power, bending light rays towards the focal point.
The ZNPX14 is available from Newport's website and is currently in stock, making it a readily available option for your optical system needs.
