L-PCX130 14.2 mm Dia. Plano-Convex Lens; EFL=25mm Uncoated

The L-PCX130 is a Plano-Convex lens with a diameter of 14.2 mm, making it suitable for a wide range of optical applications. This lens is characterized by its convex shape on one side and a flat surface on the other, a design that offers a variety of benefits, including a longer focal length and a wider field of view compared to similar lenses.

The lens has an effective focal length (EFL) of 25mm, which is the distance from the lens's center to the point where light rays converge or diverge. This EFL makes the L-PCX130 ideal for applications that require a longer focal length, such as in telescopes or telephoto lenses.

The lens is made from N-BK7 Schott, a high-quality optical glass known for its excellent transparency and low dispersion. This material ensures that the lens delivers sharp and clear images, free from chromatic aberration.

The geometry of the lens includes a thickness of 1.9mm at the edge and 4mm at the center. The inner and outer radii are 0, indicating a flat surface on one side and a curved surface on the other. The lens's radius of curvature (R1) is 12.92mm, and the back focal length (BFL) is 22.29mm.

Notably, the lens is uncoated, meaning it does not have any anti-reflective coatings. While this may result in a higher level of internal reflection, it also means that the lens is more cost-effective and easier to clean.
