L-BCX017 6 mm Dia. Double-Convex Lens; EFL=30mm Uncoated
The L-BCX017 is a 6 mm diameter double-convex lens with an effective focal length (EFL) of 30mm, making it suitable for a wide range of optical applications. This lens is sourced from Ross Optical, a reputable vendor known for their high-quality optical elements.
The lens is spherical in shape, with a base shape of circular. The geometry of the lens includes a thickness edge of 2mm and a thickness center of 2.3mm, providing a robust structure that can withstand typical use. The inner and outer radii are 0mm, indicating a symmetrical design.
The L-BCX017 is made from n-bk7 Schott, a popular optical glass known for its excellent optical properties. The wavelength of 587.6nm suggests that this lens is designed for use in the visible light spectrum.
Notably, this lens is uncoated. While coatings can enhance the performance of lenses by reducing reflections, increasing transmission, and protecting the surface, an uncoated lens can be advantageous in certain applications where cost, simplicity, or specific optical characteristics are priorities.
