The SLB-07-12PIR2 is a Plano-Convex Spherical Lens, sourced from OptoSigma, a renowned vendor in the optical industry. This lens, with a 7.0 mm diameter and a 12.0 mm focal length, is designed for use within the wavelength range of 750-1550nm, making it suitable for a variety of applications within the infrared spectrum.
The lens is fabricated from n-bk7 schott, a popular optical glass due to its excellent optical properties and versatility. The Plano-Convex geometry, specifically, features a flat front surface and a curved back surface, contributing to a relatively thin edge thickness of 1.9 mm and a center thickness of 3 mm. The back focal length (BFL) is 10.1 mm, and the effective focal length (EFL) is 12 mm, providing a compact and efficient optical solution.
The SLB-07-12PIR2 comes equipped with an opt IR2 coating on both the front and back surfaces. This anti-reflective coating is specifically designed for the infrared region, further enhancing the lens' performance by minimizing surface reflections and increasing transmission within its specified wavelength range.
