L-PCX003 6 mm Dia. Plano-Convex Lens; EFL=18mm Uncoated
The L-PCX003 is a 6 mm diameter Plano-Convex lens, part of Ross Optical's extensive catalog of optical elements. This lens is designed with a spherical geometry, featuring a convex surface that refracts light towards a central focal point. The lens has a base shape of a circle, ensuring consistent light refraction across its surface.
The lens's geometry includes a thickness of 0.9 mm at the edge and 1.4 mm at the center, providing a robust structure while maintaining a slim profile. The effective focal length (EFL) of this lens is 18 mm, making it suitable for applications that require moderate magnification or light convergence.
The L-PCX003 is made from N-BK7 Schott glass, a popular material in optical systems due to its high refractive index and low dispersion. This makes the lens ideal for applications that require high-quality image reproduction, such as microscopy, photolithography, or beam shaping.
The lens is uncoated, meaning it does not have any additional layers to enhance light transmission or protect the surface from environmental factors. However, this does not affect its performance in applications where such coatings are not necessary.
