PLCX-FS29 38 mm Dia. x 750 mm FL; Uncoated; Plano-Convex Lens
The PLCX-FS29 is a Plano-Convex lens, a type of spherical lens, sourced from WTS Photonics. This lens has a base shape of a circle and a diameter of 38 mm. The lens's thickness at the edge is 3 mm, while its center thickness is 3.52 mm. The effective focal length (EFL) of this lens is 750 mm, making it suitable for applications requiring long focal lengths.
The lens's first radius of curvature (R1) is 345.1 mm, and its back focal length (BFL) is 747.68 mm. The inner and outer radii are both 0 mm, indicating a uniform curvature. The lens is made of fused sil mal-1965, a material with a refractive index suitable for various optical applications.
The lens is designed to operate at a wavelength of 546.1 nm. It does not have any coating, which means it is uncoated. This could lead to higher levels of reflection at the lens's surfaces, but it also means the lens is more cost-effective and suitable for applications where coating is not necessary.
The lens's geometry and material make it suitable for use in a wide range of optical systems, including imaging systems, beam shaping, and beam expansion. However, users should consider the lens's uncoated nature and its potential impact on system performance.
