L-MBX008 5 mm Dia. Double-Convex Lens; EFL=7mm Uncoated

The L-MBX008 is a 5 mm diameter double-convex lens with an effective focal length (EFL) of 7mm, sourced from the renowned optical vendor, Ross Optical. This lens, designed for general-purpose use, is a spherical lens with a base shape of a circle, ensuring a wide field of view and minimal distortion.

The lens's geometry is meticulously crafted, with a thickness of 2mm at the edge and 3mm at the center, providing a robust structure while maintaining a compact form factor. The radii of curvature for the first and second surfaces are 6.68mm and -6.68mm respectively, indicating a symmetrical design that contributes to superior image quality.

The lens is made from the high-quality material N-BK7 Schott, a borosilicate glass known for its excellent optical properties, including high transparency and low dispersion. This material is ideal for applications that require high image resolution and color fidelity.

The L-MBX008 is uncoated, meaning it does not have any additional layers to enhance light transmission or protect the lens surface. However, uncoated lenses can be advantageous in certain scenarios, such as when cost-effectiveness is a priority or when specific coating types may interfere with the application.

This lens is suitable for wavelengths of 587.6nm, making it a versatile option for a wide range of optical systems. With its robust construction, high-quality material, and precise design, the L-MBX008 is an excellent choice for various applications, from imaging to beam shaping and more.
