The L-PCX216 is a 30 mm diameter Plano-Convex lens, sourced from the renowned optical component vendor, Ross Optical. This lens, with its base shape being circular, is designed for use in a wide range of optical systems, thanks to its versatile geometry and high-quality material construction.
The lens features a large effective focal length (EFL) of 120mm, making it suitable for applications that require a longer focal length. The plano-convex design, where one side is flat and the other is curved, allows for efficient light gathering and focusing. The radius of curvature of the curved surface is 62.016mm, contributing to the lens's overall optical performance.
The lens is made from the high-quality material, N-BK7 Schott, a borosilicate crown glass known for its excellent optical properties, including low dispersion and high transmission across the visible spectrum. This makes the L-PCX216 an ideal choice for applications that require high image quality and color fidelity.
The lens has a thickness of 2mm at the edge and 3.8mm at the center, providing structural rigidity while minimizing unwanted optical aberrations. The inner and outer radii are both zero, indicating a uniform curvature across the lens surface.
Please note that the lens is uncoated. While this can result in lower costs, it may lead to reduced light transmission and increased susceptibility to surface damage. Coatings can be added to enhance the lens's performance, depending on the specific application requirements.
