The L-PCX242 is a 38.1 mm diameter Plano-Convex lens, sourced from the renowned optical vendor, Ross Optical. This lens is a Spherical element with a Base Shape of Circular, designed for use in a wide range of optical applications.
The lens features an effective focal length (EFL) of 63.5mm, making it suitable for systems requiring a longer focal length. The geometry of the lens includes a thickness edge of 1.9mm and a thickness center of 8mm, providing a robust structure for efficient light transmission.
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 in the visible spectrum. The lens is uncoated, offering a cost-effective solution for applications where anti-reflection coatings are not required.
The L-PCX242 is designed to work with a wavelength of 587.6nm, typically used in monochromatic applications. The lens's shape is Spherical, a common choice for its ease of manufacturing and high optical performance.
