L-PCX510 8 mm Dia. Plano-Convex Lens; EFL=15.5mm Uncoated

The L-PCX510 is a Plano-Convex lens with an 8 mm diameter, sourced from the renowned optical vendor, Ross Optical. This lens is a spherical element, featuring a base shape of a circle, designed to manipulate light in various optical systems.

The lens has a center thickness of 2 mm and an edge thickness of 0.9 mm, providing a robust structure while maintaining a compact form factor. The effective focal length (EFL) of this lens is 15.5 mm, making it suitable for applications that require a moderate focal length.

The lens is made from the high-quality material n-BK7 Schott, a borosilicate crown glass known for its excellent optical properties, including low dispersion and high homogeneity. This material is ideal for applications that require high image quality and precision.

The L-PCX510 is uncoated, meaning it does not have any additional layers to enhance its optical properties. While this may limit its performance in certain applications, it can be advantageous in others, such as where cost-effectiveness and simplicity are prioritized.

This lens is designed to work with a wavelength of 587.6 nm, making it suitable for a wide range of applications, from imaging to laser systems. The inner and outer radii of the lens are 0, indicating a flat surface on one side and a curved surface on the other.
