The SLB-15-30PIR2 is a Plano-Convex Spherical Lens, sourced from the reputable vendor OptoSigma. This lens is designed with a circular base shape and a diameter of 15.0 mm, making it suitable for a wide range of optical applications. The lens has a thickness of 2.0 mm at the edge and 3.9 mm at the center, providing a robust structure while maintaining a sleek profile.
The Effective Focal Length (EFL) of this lens is 30.0 mm, which is a crucial factor in determining the lens's magnification and field of view. The front radius of curvature (R1) is 15.57 mm, and the back focal length (BFL) is 27.4 mm, contributing to the lens's overall optical performance.
The lens is made from n-bk7 schott, a high-quality optical glass known for its excellent transmittance and low auto-fluorescence. This material makes the lens suitable for use in the wavelength range of 546.1 nm.
The lens features a coating on both the front and back surfaces, specifically the opt ir2 coating. This coating enhances the lens's performance in the infrared spectrum, between 750 nm and 1550 nm, making it ideal for applications such as thermal imaging, night vision, and other infrared-based technologies.
