PLCX210 25.4 mm Dia. x 175 mm FL; Uncoated; Plano-Convex Lens

The PLCX210 is a Plano-Convex lens, a type of spherical lens, sourced from WTS Photonics. This lens has a base shape of a circle and is designed for use in various optical applications. The lens is made from n-BK7 Schott glass, a popular material due to its excellent optical properties and versatility.

The PLCX210 has a diameter of 25.4 mm and a thickness at the edge of 2 mm. The thickness at the center is 2.89 mm, providing a solid structure for various applications. The effective focal length (EFL) of this lens is 175 mm, a characteristic that significantly influences the lens's optical performance.

The lens's radius of curvature (R1) is 90.78 mm, and the back focal length (BFL) is 173.1 mm. The inner radius is 0 mm, and the outer radius is also 0 mm, indicating a plano surface on one side of the lens.

This lens is uncoated, meaning it does not have any additional layers to enhance its optical properties. However, uncoated lenses can still provide good optical performance, especially in applications where high transmission and low reflection are not critical.

The lens is designed to operate at a wavelength of 546.1 nm. This wavelength is within the visible light spectrum, making this lens suitable for applications involving visible light.
