G312332000 31.5 mm Dia. N-BK7 Plano-Convex Lens; EFL=60mm Uncoated

The G312332000 is a Plano-Convex lens with a diameter of 31.5 mm, sourced from the renowned optical components manufacturer, Qioptiq Photonics. This lens is designed for use in a wide range of optical systems, offering a focal length of 60mm and a high-quality N-BK7 glass substrate.

The lens's geometry is characterized by its plano-convex shape, where one side is flat (plano) and the other side is curved (convex). The curvature of the convex side is defined by a radius of 31.85 mm. The lens has a thickness of 2.1 mm at the edge and 6.3 mm at the center, providing a robust structure suitable for various applications.

The lens is made from N-BK7 glass, a popular choice in the optical industry due to its excellent optical properties and high damage threshold. This type of glass is known for its low auto-fluorescence, making it ideal for use in laser applications. The lens is uncoated, meaning it does not have any additional layers to enhance its optical properties. However, uncoated lenses can be more cost-effective and are often sufficient for many applications.

The G312332000 lens is designed to operate at a wavelength of 588 nm, making it suitable for use in systems that operate within this wavelength range. Its spherical shape allows for efficient light gathering and focusing, making it a versatile choice for various optical setups.
