Product catalog summary
Overview of Plano-Concave Lenses (PCV)
The Plano-Concave (PCV) Lens is characterized by its negative focal lengths, which cause it to diverge collimated incident light and form only virtual images. These lenses are primarily used to expand light beams or increase focal lengths in optical systems. Common applications include telescopes, collimators, optical transceivers, magnifiers, radiometers, and condensers.
Materials
PCV lenses are made from a variety of materials, including BK7 glass, Sapphire crystal, Quartz crystal, UV Fused Silica, Germanium monocrystal (Ge), Silicon monocrystal, ZnSe, Barium Fluoride (BaF2), Calcium Fluoride (CaF2), ZnS, Pyrex, BOROFLOAT, and float glass.
Specifications and Quality Grades
  • Dimensions: Precise grade ranges from 3 to 150mm in diameter, while standard grade ranges from 1 to 300mm, with customization available.
  • Tolerance: Diameter tolerance is +/-0.05mm for precise and +/-0.1mm for standard. Thickness tolerance follows the same pattern.
  • Centering: Less than 1 arc minute for precise and less than 3 arc minutes for standard.
  • Chamfer/Bevel: Both grades have a chamfer of 0.25x45°, fine ground.
  • Surface Accuracy: 1/0.5 @633nm for precise and 3/1 @633nm for standard.
  • Surface Quality: 40/20, 20/10 for precise and 60/40 for standard.
  • Clear Aperture: Greater than 85% for both grades.
  • Coating: Anti-reflective coatings are available, with customization options.
Shapes
PCV lenses are available in circular/round shapes, with options for special cutting into rectangular or square shapes, or steps.
