The L-BCX255 is a high-quality double-convex lens offered by Ross Optical, a renowned vendor in the optical industry. This lens, with a diameter of 75 mm, is designed for use in a variety of optical applications, boasting an effective focal length (EFL) of 150mm.
The lens is spherical in shape, featuring two convex surfaces with radii of curvature R1 and R2, measured at 152.93mm and -152.93mm respectively. This specific curvature allows for a high degree of light convergence, making it ideal for use in imaging systems, beam shaping, and other applications requiring a strong focal point.
The lens has a center thickness of 12.2mm and an edge thickness of 2.9mm, providing a robust structure while maintaining a relatively lightweight design. The geometry of the lens is circular, allowing for versatile mounting options and ease of integration into various optical systems.
The L-BCX255 is made from N-BK7 Schott, a popular optical glass known for its excellent optical properties and durability. This material is particularly suitable for use in the visible spectrum, with a wavelength of 587.6nm.
Notably, this lens is uncoated. While coatings can be applied to enhance the lens's performance in specific applications, such as reducing reflection or increasing transmission, this lens is designed to provide optimal performance in its uncoated state.
