The PLCX108 is a Plano-Convex lens, a type of spherical lens, sourced from WTS Photonics. This lens is characterized by its circular base shape and is available in the n-bk7 Schott material. The lens has a diameter of 12.7 mm and a thickness at the edge of 1.8 mm, while the center thickness measures 2.32 mm. The effective focal length (EFL) of this lens is 75 mm, and the radius of curvature (R1) is 38.9 mm.
The back focal length (BFL) of the PLCX108 is 73.47 mm, and it does not have any inner or outer radius. The lens is uncoated, and its single wavelength is 546.1 nm. This lens is currently in stock and can be purchased directly from the WTS Photonics website.
Plano-Convex lenses are widely used in various optical systems due to their simple design and versatile applications. They are often used as objective lenses, beam expanders, or condensers. The PLCX108, with its specific dimensions and material properties, is particularly suitable for applications that require a long focal length and a high level of optical quality.
