L-BCX182 38.1 mm Dia. Double-Convex Lens; EFL=175mm Uncoated
The L-BCX182 is a high-quality double-convex lens, part of the extensive catalog offered by Ross Optical. This lens, with a diameter of 38.1 mm, is designed for use in a wide range of optical applications, thanks to its precise geometry and high-quality material.
The lens features a large effective focal length (EFL) of 175mm, making it suitable for use in systems requiring significant optical power. The double-convex shape, with radii of curvature of 180.02mm and -180.02mm for the first and second surfaces, respectively, ensures efficient light gathering and focusing.
The L-BCX182 is made from n-BK7 Schott, a popular optical glass known for its excellent optical properties and versatility. This material is particularly suitable for applications in the visible spectrum, with a wavelength of 587.6nm.
The lens has a center thickness of 5.02mm and an edge thickness of 3mm, providing robustness and durability. The uncoated surface treatment allows for high light transmission but may be subject to reflection and scattering, depending on the application.
