L-PCX004 6 mm Dia. Plano-Convex Lens; EFL=21mm Uncoated

The L-PCX004 is a 6 mm diameter Plano-Convex lens with an effective focal length (EFL) of 21mm, sourced from Ross Optical. This lens is uncoated, offering a cost-effective solution for applications where coating is not a necessity.

The lens geometry includes a 1mm thickness at the edge and a 1.42mm thickness at the center, providing a balanced structure for various optical applications. The inner and outer radii are both 0mm, indicating a uniform curvature. The base shape is circular, offering a wide field of view and uniform illumination.

The lens is made of n-BK7 Schott material, a high-quality borosilicate glass known for its excellent optical properties, including high transparency and low auto-fluorescence. This material is suitable for a wide range of applications, particularly where high precision and low distortion are required.

The L-PCX004 operates at a wavelength of 587.6nm, making it suitable for applications in the visible light spectrum. Its spherical shape allows for efficient light gathering and focusing, making it ideal for imaging systems, beam shaping, and other optical applications.

Please note that the lens is uncoated, which may result in reduced transmission and increased susceptibility to environmental factors such as dust and moisture. However, this also means that the lens is more cost-effective and can be a suitable choice for applications where coating is not a critical requirement.
