L-PCX243 25.4 mm Dia. Plano-Convex Lens; EFL=88.3mm Uncoated
The L-PCX243 is a 25.4 mm diameter Plano-Convex lens, sourced from the renowned optical vendor, Ross Optical. This lens is a Spherical Lens, specifically designed with a Base Shape of Circular, making it a versatile choice for various optical applications.
The lens's geometry is meticulously crafted, with a thickness edge of 3 mm and a thickness center of 4.8 mm. The Effective Focal Length (EFL) is 88.3 mm, indicating its capacity to focus light to a point. The lens's Inner Radius is 0, and the Outer Radius is also 0, suggesting a uniform curvature throughout.
The L-PCX243 is made from the high-quality material, n-bk7 schott, which is a borosilicate crown glass known for its excellent optical properties. The lens is designed to work optimally with a wavelength of 587.6 nm.
Notably, this lens is uncoated. Coatings are often applied to lenses to reduce reflection, increase transmission, or to protect the lens surface. However, this lens, in its uncoated form, offers a different set of advantages, such as a more affordable price point and the ability to be custom-coated according to specific application requirements.
