The L-BCX174 is a high-quality double-convex lens offered by Ross Optical, a renowned vendor in the optical industry. This lens, with a diameter of 38.1 mm, is designed for use in a variety of optical systems, offering a high level of customization and precision.
The lens features a base shape of a circle, which is a common choice for many optical applications due to its symmetry and uniformity. The geometry of the lens includes a thickness of 3 mm at the edge and 8.85 mm at the center, providing a robust structure while maintaining a sleek profile.
The effective focal length (EFL) of this lens is 62.9 mm, a characteristic that significantly influences the lens's performance in an optical system. This EFL makes the L-BCX174 suitable for applications that require a moderate level of magnification or minification.
The lens is made from n-BK7 Schott, a high-grade optical material known for its excellent optical properties. This material ensures high transmittance across a wide spectrum, making the lens suitable for use with a variety of light sources.
The L-BCX174 is uncoated, meaning it does not have any additional layers applied to its surface to alter its optical properties. While coatings can be beneficial in certain applications, an uncoated lens can offer simplicity and cost-effectiveness.
Please note that the lens is designed to work with a wavelength of 587.6 nm, a common choice for many optical applications. The lens's shape is spherical, a common choice due to its ease of manufacturing and versatility.
