L-PCX254 38.1 mm Dia. Plano-Convex Lens; EFL=500mm Uncoated
The L-PCX254 is a Plano-Convex lens, a type of spherical lens with a single curved surface and a flat surface, sourced from Ross Optical. This lens boasts a diameter of 38.1 mm and a base shape of a circle, making it suitable for a wide range of optical applications.
The lens has a thickness of 3.1 mm at the edge and 3.8 mm at the center, providing a robust structure while maintaining a sleek profile. The effective focal length (EFL) of this lens is 500mm, making it a high-powered lens ideal for focusing light over long distances.
The lens is made from n-BK7 Schott, a high-quality optical glass known for its excellent transparency and low dispersion. This material ensures high-quality image transmission and reduces chromatic aberration, making the lens suitable for precise optical systems.
The L-PCX254 operates at a wavelength of 587.6 nm, a common wavelength for visible light applications. The lens does not come with any coating, which means it is uncoated. However, users can request custom coatings to enhance the lens's performance, such as anti-reflective coatings to increase light transmission or hard coatings to improve durability.
