The SLB-05-15PM is a Plano-Convex Lens, a type of spherical lens, sourced from OptoSigma. This lens has a diameter of 5.0 mm and a focal length of 15.0 mm, making it suitable for a wide range of optical applications. The lens is made from n-bk7 schott, a high-quality optical glass known for its excellent transparency and low auto-fluorescence.
The lens features a Plano-Convex geometry, meaning one side is flat (plano) and the other side is curved (convex). This design allows for efficient light gathering and focusing. The lens has an inner radius of 0 mm and an outer radius of 0 mm, indicating a uniform curvature. The edge thickness is 1.2 mm, while the center thickness is 1.6 mm, providing structural integrity and minimizing optical distortions.
The SLB-05-15PM is coated with Opt M on both the front and back surfaces. This coating enhances the lens's performance by reducing reflection and increasing transmission within the 400-700nm wavelength range. The coating also provides protection against environmental factors, ensuring the lens maintains its optical properties over time.
