PLCX001 6 mm Dia. x 12 mm FL; Uncoated; Plano-Convex Lens
The PLCX001 is a Plano-Convex lens, a type of spherical lens, sourced from WTS Photonics. This lens has a circular base shape and is designed for use in various optical applications. The lens is uncoated, which means it does not have any additional layers to enhance its optical properties or protect it from environmental factors.
The lens has a diameter of 6 mm and a thickness at the edge of 1.5 mm. The thickness at the center is 2.27 mm, providing a base focal length (FL) of 12 mm. The effective focal length (EFL) is also 12 mm, which is the distance from the lens's principal point to the focal point when the lens is focused at infinity.
The lens's radius of curvature (R1) is 6.22 mm, and the back focal length (BFL) is 10.5 mm. The inner radius is 0 mm, and the outer radius is also 0 mm, indicating that the lens is uniformly curved.
The lens is made of n-BK7 Schott glass, a common material in optical applications due to its excellent optical properties and durability. The lens is designed to work with a wavelength of 546.1 nm.
