L-PCX093 12.5 mm Dia. Plano-Convex Lens; EFL=15mm Uncoated

The L-PCX093 is a Plano-Convex lens with a diameter of 12.5 mm, sourced from the renowned optical component vendor, Ross Optical. This lens is specifically designed for use in optical systems that require a convex lens with a flat surface on one side and a curved surface on the other.

The lens has an effective focal length (EFL) of 15mm, making it suitable for applications that require a moderate level of magnification or minification. The EFL is a critical parameter in lens selection as it directly influences the field of view and the size of the image produced by the lens.

The L-PCX093 is made from N-BK7 Schott glass, a popular material for optical lenses due to its excellent optical properties and high transmittance in the visible spectrum. The lens's geometry includes a thickness of 1.6mm at the edge and 4.7mm at the center, providing structural integrity and ensuring minimal distortion.

The lens's base shape is circular, offering versatility in application and ease of integration into various optical systems. The lens is uncoated, meaning it does not have any additional layers to enhance its optical properties or protect it from environmental factors. However, uncoated lenses often provide superior light transmission compared to coated lenses, making them ideal for applications where high transmittance is required.
