PLCX-50.8-199.9-UV 50.8 mm Dia. UVFS Laser Grade Plano-Convex Lens; EFL=400mm Uncoated
The PLCX-50.8-199.9-UV is a Plano-Convex Spherical Lens, sourced from CVI Laser Optics, designed for use in laser applications. This lens boasts a diameter of 50.8 mm and a thickness at the edge of 4.73 mm, with a center thickness of 6.35 mm. The effective focal length (EFL) of this lens is 400mm, making it suitable for applications requiring a longer focal length.
The lens is made from UVFS material with a Mal-1965 index, which is specifically designed for use in ultraviolet (UV) light applications. The lens is uncoated, which means it does not have any additional layers to protect it from environmental factors or to enhance its optical properties. However, the uncoated nature of the lens can make it more susceptible to damage from UV light and other environmental factors.
The lens has a plano-convex geometry, meaning one side is flat (plano) and the other side is curved (convex). The radius of curvature of the curved side is 199.87 mm. The lens does not have an inner or outer radius, indicating that it is a simple plano-convex lens.
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 UV laser applications, such as laser cutting, engraving, and marking.
