L-PCX365 80 mm Dia. Plano-Convex Lens; EFL=130mm Uncoated

The L-PCX365 is a Plano-Convex lens with a diameter of 80 mm, sourced from the renowned optical component vendor, Ross Optical. This lens is characterized by its spherical geometry and circular base shape, making it suitable for a wide range of applications.

The lens has a center thickness of 16 mm and an edge thickness of 2.9 mm, providing a robust structure while maintaining a sleek profile. The effective focal length (EFL) of this lens is 130 mm, making it a medium to long-range focal length lens. The back focal length (BFL) is 119.94 mm, which is a critical parameter for designing optical systems.

The L-PCX365 is made of N-BK7 Schott, a high-quality optical glass known for its excellent optical properties and durability. The lens is uncoated, which means it does not have any anti-reflective or other surface coatings. This may result in higher reflectivity, especially at larger incident angles, but it also means the lens is more cost-effective and suitable for applications where such coatings are not required.

The lens is designed to work with a wavelength of 587.6 nm, which is in the visible light spectrum. This makes it suitable for applications in fields such as imaging, metrology, and machine vision, where the ability to manipulate visible light is crucial.
