BICX101 12.7 mm Dia. x 15 mm FL; Uncoated; Double-Convex Lens

The BICX101 is a high-precision double-convex lens, 12.7 mm in diameter and featuring a focal length of 15 mm. This lens is sourced from WTS Photonics, a reputable vendor known for their quality optical elements. The lens is uncoated, offering a bare, unaltered glass surface that is ideal for applications where coating might interfere with the optical path.

The lens's geometry is characterized by its double-convex shape, with a thickness of 2 mm at the edge and 4.89 mm at the center. The radii of curvature for the first and second surfaces are 14.65 mm and -14.65 mm, respectively, contributing to a back focal length of 13.27 mm. The lens is made of n-BK7 Schott, a popular optical glass known for its excellent optical properties and versatility.

The lens is designed to operate at a wavelength of 546.1 nm, making it suitable for a wide range of applications, from imaging and illumination to beam shaping and focusing. Its spherical design ensures minimal aberration and high image quality, making it a reliable choice for various optical systems.

Please note that the lens does not have any anti-reflective coating, which might be a consideration for applications where stray light or reflection needs to be minimized. Despite this, the BICX101's high-quality glass and precision craftsmanship ensure excellent performance in its class.
