L-PCX309 50.8 mm Dia. Plano-Convex Lens; EFL=100mm Uncoated

The L-PCX309 is a Plano-Convex lens with a diameter of 50.8 mm, making it suitable for a wide range of optical applications. This lens is sourced from Ross Optical, a reputable vendor known for their high-quality optical elements. The lens features an effective focal length (EFL) of 100mm, which is a common choice for many optical systems due to its versatility.

The lens is made from N-BK7 Schott, a popular optical glass due to its excellent optical properties and high Abbe number. This makes the lens suitable for use in systems that require high image quality and low dispersion. The lens is uncoated, which means it does not have any additional layers to enhance its optical properties. However, uncoated lenses can be a cost-effective choice for applications where high transmission and low reflection are not critical.

The geometry of the lens includes a thickness of 3 mm at the edge and 9.67 mm at the center. The inner radius is 0 mm, and the outer radius is also 0 mm, indicating a flat surface on one side of the lens. The radius of curvature (R1) is 51.68 mm, and the back focal length (BFL) is 93.62 mm.

This lens is designed for use at a wavelength of 587.6 nm. It is spherical in shape, which is a common choice for many optical systems due to its ease of manufacturing and good optical performance. The lens is circular in base shape, adding to its versatility in various applications.
