PLCX-FS26 38 mm Dia. x 250 mm FL; Uncoated; Plano-Convex Lens
The PLCX-FS26 is a Plano-Convex lens, sourced from WTS Photonics, with a diameter of 38 mm and a focal length of 250 mm. This lens is designed for use in a wide range of optical applications, thanks to its high-quality fused silica material (Mal-1965) and precise geometric specifications.
The lens features a plano-convex shape, meaning one side is flat (plano) while the other side is curved (convex). This design allows for efficient light concentration and minimal spherical aberration. The lens's geometry includes an edge thickness of 3 mm and a center thickness of 4.58 mm, ensuring structural integrity and minimal distortion.
The lens's effective focal length (EFL) is 250 mm, which is the distance from the lens's principal point to the point where the light rays converge. The lens's back focal length (BFL) is 247 mm, which is the distance from the lens's rear surface to the point where the light rays converge.
The lens is uncoated, meaning it does not have any additional layers to protect it from environmental factors or enhance its optical properties. However, this does not affect its performance in many applications.
Please note that the lens is designed for a wavelength of 546.1 nm. This specificity is crucial for applications where precise wavelength control is required.
