The BICV301 is a high-precision double-concave lens, sourced from the reputable vendor WTS Photonics. This lens boasts a base shape of a circle and is designed for use in spherical optical systems. The lens has a diameter of 38 mm and a thickness of 10.44 mm at the edge, while the center thickness is a mere 2 mm.
The BICV301 features an effective focal length (EFL) of -45 mm, making it suitable for applications that require a negative focal length. The first radius of curvature (R1) is -44.87 mm, and the second radius of curvature (R2) is 44.87 mm, indicating a symmetrical double-concave design. The back focal length (BFL) is 41.46 mm.
This lens is made from n-BK7 Schott, a high-quality optical glass known for its excellent transparency and low dispersion. The lens is uncoated, which means it does not have any additional layers to enhance its optical properties. However, it can be customized with various coatings upon request.
The lens is designed to operate at a wavelength of 546.1 nm. It's important to note that the lens's performance can vary depending on the incident light's wavelength and angle. Therefore, it's crucial to consider these factors when integrating this lens into an optical system.
