The BICX001 is a high-precision double-convex lens, sourced from the reputable vendor WTS Photonics. This lens boasts a 6 mm diameter and a 15 mm focal length (FL), making it suitable for a wide range of optical applications. The lens is uncoated, offering a cost-effective solution for users who do not require additional anti-reflective or protective coatings.
The lens features a base shape of a perfect circle, with a thickness of 1.5 mm at the edge and 2.1 mm at the center. The effective focal length (EFL) is 15 mm, while the radii of curvature are 15.2 mm for the first surface (R1) and -15.2 mm for the second surface (R2). The back focal length (BFL) is 14.3 mm. The lens is made of n-BK7 Schott, a popular optical glass due to its excellent optical properties and versatility.
The wavelength for this lens is 546.1 nm, which falls within the visible light spectrum. The lens shape is spherical, a common choice for general-purpose optical systems due to its ease of manufacturing and good optical performance.
