The LPX-25.4-39.5-C is a high-quality Plano-Convex lens, sourced from CVI Laser Optics, designed for optimal performance in various imaging applications. This lens boasts a 25.4 mm diameter and a focal length of 76.2 mm, making it a versatile choice for a range of optical systems.
The lens is crafted from N-BK7, a popular material in the optical industry due to its excellent optical properties. This Schott glass type is known for its low dispersion and high Abbe number, ensuring minimal chromatic aberration and superior image quality.
The Plano-Convex design of this lens features a flat plane on one side and a curved plane on the other, with a radius of curvature of 39.5 mm. This design is ideal for focusing or collimating light, making it suitable for use in cameras, microscopes, telescopes, and other optical instruments.
The lens has a center thickness of 4.1 mm and an edge thickness of 2 mm, providing robustness and durability. Despite its robust construction, the lens remains lightweight, making it easy to integrate into various optical setups.
Notably, this lens is uncoated, meaning it does not have any anti-reflective coatings. While this may result in a higher reflectance at the air-glass interfaces, it can also make the lens more cost-effective and suitable for applications where such coatings are not necessary.
