Customized Optical Glass Lens Silicon Mirror Spherical Plano Convex Lens

Item Number:X-P22S10X8201Y

Spherical lenses are lenses with at least one curved surface. They converge or scatter light, change the path of light and affect the wavefront curvature of light.It is widely used in medical imaging, laser optics, security monitoring, automotive industry, military industry, aerospace and other high-tech fields. They are important optical elements to improve the signal coupling between optical fiber, transmitter and detector. VY Optoelectronics Co., Ltd. produces high-precision spherical lenses in the plano convex, plano concave, double convex, double concave and meniscus.

What is a plano convex lens?

Optical Glass Plano-convex lenses are positive focal length elements that have one spherical surface and one flat surface. 
These lenses are designed for infinite conjugate (parallel light) use or simple imaging in non-critical applications. 
These optic lenses are ideal for all-purpose focusing elements. PCX Lenses have one convex surface. 
For maximum efficiency, the second, plano (flat) surface should face the desired focal plane.

How convex lens work?

Plano-convex lenses are used for applying focus to an optical system, and collimating diverging light beams. ... Low spherical aberration is obtained if the lens is orientated in a way that causes the collimated beam to enter or exit the curved surface, thereby making the plano side face towards the point source or focus.

People Also Ask

  • What are spherical lens used for?
    Spherical lenses, also known as singlets, are optical lenses with curved surfaces that cause light rays to converge or diverge. They are widely used in imaging applications.

     
  • What is the difference between aspheric and spherical lenses?
    Spherical or aspherical denotes the profile of a lens. Spheric lenses use a single curve in their profile, whilst aspheric lenses use varying curves. What is this? These varying curves make your lenses thinner and generally flatter which makes them look nicer and prevents your eyes being magnified.

     
  • Which lens is better cylindrical or spherical?
    When you're considering a cylindrical lens versus a spherical lens, the most important distinction is where the lens brings light into focus. A spherical lens brings beams of light to focus at a single point for viewing. A cylindrical lens, by comparison, focuses light onto a line.

     
  • How do you know if a lens is aspheric?
    The most unique geometric feature of aspheric lenses is that the radius of curvature changes with distance from the optical axis, unlike a sphere, which has a constant radius (see Figure 3). This distinctive shape allows aspheric lenses to deliver improved optical performance compared to standard spherical surfaces.
