This is a Plano-Convex Lens, a type of spherical lens, sourced from Standa, a reputable vendor in the optical industry. The lens is characterized by its circular base shape and is designed for use in various optical applications.
The lens has a diameter of 12.7 mm and a thickness that varies from 2 mm at the edge to 2.2 mm at the center. It has an effective focal length (EFL) of 250 mm, making it suitable for applications that require a longer focal length. The lens's inner and outer radii are both zero, indicating a plano-convex geometry.
The lens is made from CAF2 (Calcium Fluoride) material, specifically the mal-1963 variant. This material is known for its excellent transparency in the infrared region, making it ideal for applications involving infrared light. The lens is designed to operate at a wavelength of 2940 nm.
Notably, this lens is uncoated. While coatings can enhance the performance of lenses by reducing reflections, increasing transmission, or providing other benefits, an uncoated lens can be advantageous in certain applications where specific coating properties are not required.
