The PAC16AR.16 is a high-quality achromatic doublet lens, designed and manufactured by MKS/Newport. This lens is specifically engineered for use in the near-infrared and infrared spectrum, with a wavelength range of 750-1550nm. The lens is constructed from two types of Schott glass, N-LAK22 and N-SF6, which provide excellent optical performance and durability.
The lens features a plano-convex geometry, with a diameter of 25mm and a thickness of 9.59mm at the edge. The inner and outer radii are both zero, indicating a flat surface on one side and a curved surface on the other. The effective focal length (EFL) of the lens is 45mm, providing a moderate level of magnification and a relatively wide field of view.
The lens is coated with a new AR-16e coating on both the front and back surfaces. This anti-reflective coating reduces surface reflections and increases transmission, improving the overall efficiency and performance of the lens. The coating is specifically designed for use in the near-infrared and infrared spectrum, ensuring optimal performance in the intended application.
The lens is available for purchase directly from the MKS/Newport website, and the link provided is valid and indicates that the lens is currently in stock. This makes the PAC16AR.16 an ideal choice for users who require a high-quality, achromatic doublet lens for use in the near-infrared and infrared spectrum.
