HO-PXL30-16.6 30mm Dia. N-BK7 Plano-Convex Lens; EFL=500mm Uncoated
This is a Plano-Convex lens, a type of spherical lens, sourced from Holmarc Opto-Mechatronics. The lens has a base shape of a circle and a diameter of 30mm. The thickness of the lens at the edge is 2mm. The effective focal length (EFL) of this lens is 500mm, making it suitable for applications that require long focal lengths.
The lens is made of N-BK7, a type of glass commonly used in optical systems due to its excellent optical properties. The radius of curvature of the curved surface is 260.808mm. The inner and outer radii are both zero, indicating that the lens is a simple plano-convex design.
The lens is uncoated, meaning it does not have any anti-reflective coatings. This may result in higher reflective losses and lower transmission compared to coated lenses. However, uncoated lenses are often more cost-effective and can be suitable for applications where high transmission is not critical.
The lens is designed to work at a wavelength of 587.6nm. This wavelength falls within the visible spectrum, making the lens suitable for use in visible light applications.
