The BICX-FS11 is a high-precision double-convex lens, characterized by its 25.4 mm diameter and 75 mm focal length. This lens is sourced from WTS Photonics, a reputable vendor in the optical industry. The lens's design features a base shape of a circle, with a double-convex geometry that provides excellent focusing capabilities.
The lens's geometry is meticulously crafted, with an edge thickness of 2 mm and a center thickness of 4.39 mm. The effective focal length (EFL) is 75 mm, ensuring sharp and clear image projection. The radii of curvature for the first and second surfaces are 68.23 mm and -68.23 mm respectively, contributing to the lens's high optical performance. The back focal length (BFL) is 73.39 mm, making it suitable for various optical applications.
The lens is made from fused silica (mal-1965), a high-quality material known for its excellent transparency and resistance to thermal shock. This material is particularly suitable for applications involving high-power lasers or extreme temperatures. The lens is uncoated, offering a cost-effective solution for applications where coating is not required or preferred.
The lens is designed to operate at a wavelength of 546.1 nm, making it suitable for a wide range of applications in the visible light spectrum. The lens's spherical shape ensures minimal optical aberrations, providing high-quality images.
