PLCX-FS03 12.7 mm Dia. x 30 mm FL; Uncoated; Plano-Convex Lens
The PLCX-FS03 is a Plano-Convex lens, a type of spherical lens, sourced from WTS Photonics. This lens boasts a diameter of 12.7 mm and a center thickness of 3.35 mm, with an edge thickness of 1.8 mm. The effective focal length (EFL) of this lens is 30 mm, making it suitable for a variety of optical applications.
The lens's geometry is defined by a radius of curvature (R1) of 13.8 mm, and a back focal length (BFL) of 27.71 mm. The inner and outer radii are both 0 mm, indicating a simple, circular shape. The lens is made from fused sil mal-1965, a material with a refractive index that supports the lens's optical performance.
The lens is designed to operate at a wavelength of 546.1 nm. It does not come with any coating, which means it is uncoated. This may affect its performance in certain applications, particularly those requiring high transmission or resistance to environmental factors.
