The PLCV-FS11 is a Plano-Concave Spherical Lens, sourced from WTS Photonics, a renowned vendor in the optical industry. This lens boasts a diameter of 25.4 mm and a center thickness of 2 mm, with an edge thickness of 3.01 mm, providing a robust and compact design.
The lens is designed with a base shape of Circular, ensuring uniform light distribution and minimal distortion. The geometry of the lens is characterized by a focal length of -175 mm, a radius of curvature (R1) of -80.54 mm, and a back focal length of -176.43 mm. These specifications make it suitable for applications requiring negative focal lengths.
The lens is crafted from Fused Silica (Mal-1965), a material known for its excellent optical properties, including high transparency and resistance to thermal shock. This material is particularly suitable for applications in the ultraviolet, visible, and near-infrared regions of the spectrum.
The lens is uncoated, offering a cost-effective solution for applications where coating is not a necessity. However, users should be aware that uncoated lenses may exhibit higher reflectivity, which could impact the overall system performance.
