LPX-8.0-5.2-C 8 mm Dia. N-BK7 Image Grade Plano-Convex Lens; EFL=10mm Uncoated

This is the LPX-8.0-5.2-C, an 8 mm diameter Plano-Convex lens made of N-BK7 glass, a popular material in the optical industry due to its excellent optical properties. The lens is sourced from CVI Laser Optics, a reputable vendor known for their high-quality optical components.

The lens features a planar surface on one side and a convex surface with a radius of curvature of 5.2 mm on the other. The center thickness of the lens is 3.9 mm, while the edge thickness is 2 mm. The effective focal length (EFL) of this lens is 10 mm, making it suitable for various applications that require a compact, high-performance lens.

The N-BK7 glass, also known as Borosilicate Crown, has a refractive index of 1.5168 at the wavelength of 546.1 nm, which is the wavelength for which this lens is designed. This lens is uncoated, meaning it does not have any anti-reflective coatings. However, uncoated lenses can still provide excellent image quality, especially in applications where the light source is not too intense.

The LPX-8.0-5.2-C is an Image Grade lens, indicating that it has been manufactured to meet high standards of optical quality. This makes it suitable for applications where image quality is critical, such as in imaging systems, beam shaping, or laser applications.
