Spherical Glass Lens

Plano Convex (PCX) Spherical Lens, UV Fused Silica, Focusing Light Overview: Plano-Convex (PCX) Lenses have a positive focal length, can focus a collimated beam or collimate light from a point source, making them ideal for collecting and focusing light in imaging applications. Star Optic provides Plano-Convex Lenses fabricated from RoHS-compliant N-BK7, UV fused silica, N-SF11, CaF2, Si, Ge, ZnSe and Sapphire. Our Plano-Convex Lenses are also used in applications involving

Plano Concave (PCV) Spherical Lens, UV Fused Silica, Diverging Collimated Beam Overview: Plano-concave (PCV) lens has one flat and one inward curved surface. PCV lenses have a negative focal length, diverging a collimated beam from a virtual focus and are commonly used for image reduction or to spread light. Star Optic provides plano-concave lenses fabricated from N-BK7, N-SF11, UV-fused silica, calcium fluoride, zinc selenide and etc. General Specifications Of UV Fused

Negative Achromatic Lens, Spherical Aberration Lens Overview: An achromatic lens or achromat is a lens that is designed to limit the effects of chromatic and spherical aberration. Achromatic lenses are corrected to bring two wavelengths (typically red and blue) into focus on the same plane. The most common type of achromat is the achromatic doublet, which is composed of two individual lenses made from glasses with different amounts of dispersion. Typically, one element is a

Double Convex (Bi-Convex) Spherical Lens, UV Fused Silica, Finite Imaging Lens Overview: Double-Convex (DCX) Lens, also referred to as bi-convex lens, has two positive, symmetrical faces with equal radii on both sides. These lenses are generally recommended for finite imaging applications. Bi-convex lenses are most suitable where the object and image are on opposite sides of the lens and the ratio of the image and object distances (conjugate ratio) is between 0.2 and 5. Star

Overview: Double-Concave (DCV) Lens, also referred to as bi-concave lens, has two inward curved surfaces. They have a negative focal length and are best used to diverge a converging beam. Double-concave lenses can diverge a collimated beam to a virtual focus and are commonly used for image reduction and to spread light. Star Optic provides double-concave lenses in a variety of substrates and anti-reflection coating options. General Specifications UV Fused Silica Double

Negative Meniscus Lens, N-BK7, Minimize Spherical Aberration Lens Overview: Negative meniscus (convex-concave) lens is designed to minimize spherical aberration in optical systems. When used in combination with another lens, a negative meniscus lens will increase the focal length and decrease the numerical aperture (NA) of the system without introducing significant spherical aberration. When used to diverge light, the convex surface should face the beam to minimize spherical
