PLCX-12.7-7.5-UV 12.7 mm Dia. UVFS Laser Grade Plano-Convex Lens; EFL=15mm Uncoated
The PLCX-12.7-7.5-UV is a laser grade plano-convex lens, designed and manufactured by CVI Laser Optics. This lens boasts a 12.7 mm diameter and is made from UVFS material, specifically Mal-1965, which is well-suited for use in ultraviolet applications.
The lens's geometry is characterized by a 1.49 mm edge thickness and a 5 mm center thickness, with a 7.5 mm radius of curvature on the convex side. The effective focal length (EFL) is 15 mm, making it suitable for a variety of optical systems. The lens is uncoated, which can be advantageous in certain applications where specific coatings may not be required or desirable.
The lens's base shape is circular, and it falls under the category of spherical lenses. The lack of an inner or outer radius indicates that this lens is a simple plano-convex design, which is often used in beam shaping and focusing applications.
The lens is designed to operate at a wavelength of 266 nm, which is within the ultraviolet spectrum. This makes it suitable for use in a variety of UV-based applications, such as UV laser systems, spectroscopy, and other UV-based analytical instruments.
The lens is currently in stock and available for immediate purchase. Further information about this lens, including detailed specifications and performance data, can be found in the vendor's catalog, linked below.
