PLCX-50.8-349.8-UV 50.8 mm Dia. UVFS Laser Grade Plano-Convex Lens; EFL=700mm Uncoated
The PLCX-50.8-349.8-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 focal length of 700 mm, making it suitable for a wide range of laser-based systems.
The lens is fabricated from UVFS, a material with a high damage threshold and excellent transmission properties in the ultraviolet spectrum, specifically at 266 nm. This makes it an ideal choice for high-power laser applications.
The lens geometry features a convex surface with a radius of curvature of 349.78 mm. The edge thickness measures 5.43 mm, while the center thickness is slightly greater at 6.35 mm. Notably, this lens is uncoated, which may affect its transmission characteristics and susceptibility to environmental factors. However, it can be advantageous in certain applications where specific coating may interfere with the laser beam.
The lens is available from IDEX Optics and is currently in stock, according to their website. For more detailed specifications, users are encouraged to refer to the provided datasheet.
