Product catalog summary
Overview of Plano-Convex Lenses (PCX)
The Plano-Convex (PCX) Lens is characterized by its positive focal lengths, which allow it to converge incident light. This lens type can form both real images, such as those focused on a piece of paper, and virtual images, as seen through magnifiers. PCX lenses are commonly utilized in devices such as telescopes, collimators, optical transceivers, magnifiers, radiometers, and condensers.
Materials
The primary materials used for manufacturing plano-convex lenses include BK7 glass, sapphire crystal, quartz crystal, germanium (Ge) monocrystal, silicon monocrystal, ZnSe, barium fluoride (BaF2), calcium fluoride (CaF2), ZnS, Pyrex, BOROFLOAT, and float glass.
Specifications and Quality Grades
  • Dimensions: Precise grade lenses have diameters ranging from 3 to 150mm, with customization options available. Standard grade lenses range from 1 to 300mm, also customizable.
  • Tolerance: Diameter tolerance is +/-0.05mm for precise grade and +/-0.1mm for standard grade. Thickness tolerance follows the same pattern.
  • Centering: Precise grade lenses have a centering of less than 1 arc minute, while standard grade lenses have less than 3 arc minutes.
  • Chamfer/Bevel: Both grades feature a 0.25x45° chamfer with fine ground, no-chips finish.
  • Surface Accuracy: Precise grade is 1/0.5 @633nm, and standard grade is 3/1 @633nm.
  • Surface Quality: Precise grade is 40/20, 20/10, while standard grade is 60/40.
  • Clear Aperture: Both grades offer more than 85% clear aperture.
  • Coating: Anti-reflective coatings are available, with customization options.
Shapes
PCX lenses are available in circular/round shapes, with options for special cutting into rectangular, square, or step shapes.
