The L-BCX180 is a high-quality double-convex lens, boasting a diameter of 38.1 mm and an effective focal length (EFL) of 125mm. This lens is sourced from the reputable vendor, Ross Optical, and is available for purchase through their online catalog.
The lens is designed with a spherical shape, featuring two convex surfaces. The first surface has a radius of curvature (R1) of 128.2, while the second surface has an R2 of -128.2. This specific curvature allows for a high degree of light refraction, making it ideal for a wide range of optical applications.
The lens is constructed from n-BK7 Schott glass, a material known for its excellent optical properties. This includes a high Abbe number, low auto-fluorescence, and excellent transmission in the visible and near-infrared spectrum. The lens has a center thickness of 5.84 mm and an edge thickness of 3 mm, providing a robust and durable structure.
The lens is uncoated, meaning it does not have any additional layers to enhance its optical properties. However, this does not affect its performance in many applications. The lens is designed to operate at a wavelength of 587.6 nm, making it suitable for use in a variety of optical systems.
