The L-BCX279 is a spherical lens with a base shape of circular, sourced from the renowned optical vendor, Ross Optical. This lens is a double-convex type, characterized by its convex-convex geometry, making it an ideal choice for a wide range of optical applications.
The lens has a diameter of 12.7 mm, ensuring a substantial light-gathering capacity. The edge thickness is 3 mm, while the center thickness is 4.05 mm, providing a robust structure and consistent optical performance. The effective focal length (EFL) of this lens is 38.1 mm, a feature that significantly influences the lens's focusing capabilities.
The L-BCX279 is made from n-bk7 Schott material, a popular choice in the optical industry due to its excellent optical properties and versatility. The lens is designed to operate at a wavelength of 587.6 nm, making it suitable for applications that require high transmittance in the visible spectrum.
Notably, this lens is uncoated. While coatings can enhance certain optical properties, such as reducing surface reflections or protecting the lens from environmental factors, an uncoated lens can offer advantages in terms of cost and simplicity.
