SLB-06-15P 6.0 mm Dia. x 15.0 mm FL; Plano-Convex Lens Uncoated

The SLB-06-15P is a 6.0 mm diameter Plano-Convex lens, uncoated, sourced from OptoSigma. This lens is designed with a spherical shape and a base shape of a circle. The lens is made from the material n-bk7 schott, a popular choice for its high refractive index and low dispersion.

The lens has a center thickness of 1.6 mm and an edge thickness of 1 mm, providing a robust structure. The effective focal length (EFL) of this lens is 15 mm, which is the distance from the lens's secondary principal plane to the focal point when the lens is imaging an object at infinity.

The radius of curvature (R1) of the lens is 7.79 mm, and the back focal length (BFL) is 13.9 mm. The BFL is the distance from the rear surface of the lens to the secondary principal plane of the lens. The inner and outer radii are both 0 mm, indicating that the lens has a uniform curvature.

This lens is designed to operate at a wavelength of 546.1 nm. It is uncoated, meaning it does not have any additional layers to enhance its optical properties. However, uncoated lenses can be more susceptible to surface reflections and may not perform as well in high-light conditions.

The lens data is currently valid and in stock, according to the vendor's website. This lens would be suitable for applications that require a simple, robust lens with a long focal length.
