PLCX002 6 mm Dia. x 30 mm FL; Uncoated; Plano-Convex Lens
The PLCX002 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 center thickness is slightly more at 1.79 mm. The effective focal length (EFL) of the lens is 30 mm, which is the distance over which the lens will focus a collimated beam of light to a spot. The radius of curvature (R1) of the convex surface is 15.56 mm. The back focal length (BFL) of the lens is 28.82 mm, which is the distance from the rear surface of the lens to the focal point.
The lens is made of n-BK7 Schott glass, a common material for optical lenses due to its excellent optical properties and durability. The lens is designed to work at a wavelength of 546.1 nm. The inner and outer radii of the lens are 0 mm, indicating that the lens has a flat surface on one side and a curved surface on the other.
