L-PCX392 25 mm Dia. Plano-Convex Lens; EFL=700mm Uncoated

The L-PCX392 is a 25 mm diameter Plano-Convex lens, sourced from the renowned optical component vendor, Ross Optical. This lens is specifically designed for use in a wide range of optical systems, offering a focal length of 700mm and a high-quality Schott N-BK7 glass material.

The Plano-Convex design of this lens features a flat (plano) surface on one side and a curved (convex) surface on the other. This geometry allows for efficient light convergence, making it ideal for various applications such as imaging, beam shaping, and laser systems. The lens has a base shape of a circle, ensuring easy integration into various optical setups.

The L-PCX392's geometry includes an edge thickness of 2mm and a center thickness of 2.2mm, providing excellent structural integrity. The effective focal length (EFL) of 700mm, combined with a 361.76mm radius of curvature (R1), ensures precise light manipulation. The back focal length (BFL) of 701.16mm further enhances the lens's performance in optical systems.

The lens is made from Schott N-BK7 glass, a popular choice in the optical industry due to its excellent optical properties, including a high Abbe number and low dispersion. This glass type ensures high-quality imaging and minimal chromatic aberration.

Please note that this lens is uncoated. While uncoated lenses can be more cost-effective, they may be more susceptible to surface reflections and scattering, which could affect overall system performance. However, this can be mitigated with the use of anti-reflective coatings or other optical treatments, if required.
