PLCX-12.7-12.5-UV 12.7 mm Dia. UVFS Laser Grade Plano-Convex Lens; EFL=25mm Uncoated
This is the PLCX-12.7-12.5-UV, a 12.7 mm diameter Plano-Convex lens, specifically designed for UVFS laser applications with a center wavelength of 266 nm. The lens is sourced from CVI Laser Optics, a reputable vendor known for their high-quality optical elements.
The lens is made of UVFS material, identified by the Material ID [mal-1965], which is particularly suited for UV laser applications. It has a plano-convex geometry, meaning one side is flat (plano) and the other side is curved (convex). This design allows for efficient light collimation and focusing.
The lens's geometry includes an outer diameter of 12.7 mm, an edge thickness of 3.27 mm, and a center thickness of 5 mm. The effective focal length (EFL) is 25 mm, which is the distance from the lens's center to the focal point where light converges. The radius of curvature (R1) is 12.49 mm.
The lens does not come with any coating, as indicated by the empty 'coating' field in the item data. This could make it more susceptible to environmental factors and may require additional handling precautions.
The lens's weblink status is 'Valid - in stock', indicating that it is readily available for purchase and use. The item data also provides a weblink to a catalog for further information.
