The PLCV505 is a Plano-Concave Lens, a type of spherical lens, sourced from WTS Photonics. This lens has a base shape of a circle and a diameter of 50 mm, making it suitable for a wide range of optical applications. The lens features a thickness edge of 5.43 mm and a thickness center of 3 mm, providing a robust structure while maintaining a sleek profile.
The effective focal length (EFL) of this lens is -250 mm, indicating that it is a diverging lens, causing parallel rays of light to spread out after passing through it. The first radius of curvature (R1) is -129.72 mm, and the back focal length (BFL) is -252.05 mm. The lens does not have an inner or outer radius, suggesting a uniform curvature throughout.
The lens is made of n-BK7 Schott, a popular optical glass due to its excellent optical properties and versatility. It is designed to work optimally at a wavelength of 546.1 nm. The lens does not come with any coating, which means it is uncoated. However, users can request coatings based on their specific requirements.
