The SBX028AR.16 is a high-quality double-convex lens, designed and manufactured by MKS/Newport. This lens boasts a diameter of 25.4 mm and a focal length of 100 mm, making it suitable for a wide range of optical applications. The lens is made from UVFS material, specifically identified as UVFS Mal-1965, which is known for its excellent optical properties.
The SBX028AR.16 features a unique geometry, with a center thickness of 4.78 mm and edge thickness of 3 mm. The lens's effective focal length (EFL) is 100 mm, and the back focal length (BFL) is 98.34 mm. The radii of curvature for the first and second surfaces are 91.045 mm and -91.045 mm, respectively. The lens's inner and outer radii are both zero, indicating a uniform curvature across the lens surface.
This lens is coated with New AR-16, a proprietary anti-reflective coating, on both the front and back surfaces. This coating enhances the lens's performance in the near-infrared (NIR) spectrum, specifically between 650 and 1000 nm. The coating reduces surface reflections, improving light transmission and enhancing the overall performance of the optical system in which the lens is used.
