L-PCX137 18 mm Dia. Plano-Convex Lens; EFL=40mm Uncoated

The L-PCX137 is a Plano-Convex lens with a diameter of 18 mm, sourced from the renowned optical vendor, Ross Optical. This lens is designed for use in a wide range of optical applications, thanks to its versatile specifications.

The lens features an effective focal length (EFL) of 40mm, making it suitable for systems that require a longer focal length. The Plano-Convex geometry, where one side is flat and the other is curved, allows for efficient light convergence. The lens's base shape is circular, ensuring uniform light distribution and minimal distortion.

The L-PCX137 is made from N-BK7 Schott glass, a popular material in optical systems due to its excellent optical properties and high Abbe number. This ensures low dispersion and high optical quality. The lens has a center thickness of 4.9 mm and an edge thickness of 2.9 mm, providing robustness and durability.

The lens is uncoated, which means it does not have any anti-reflective or protective coatings. While this may result in higher reflective losses, it also means the lens is more cost-effective and suitable for applications where such coatings are not necessary.

This lens is ideal for users seeking a high-quality, cost-effective Plano-Convex lens with a longer focal length for their optical systems. It is currently in stock and available for immediate use. For more information, please refer to the vendor's website.
