UV Fused Silica Plano-Convex (PCX) Lenses
From fast modifications to stock optics to custom designs, we can help you take your optical system from design to prototype to volume production. Contact us to get started today.
TECHSPEC® UV Fused Silica Plano-Convex (PCX) Lenses VIS-EXT Coated feature precision specifications and a variety of coating options on a broadband substrate. Fused Silica is commonly used in applications from the Ultraviolet (UV) through the Near-Infrared (NIR). Its low index of refraction, low coefficient of thermal expansion, and low inclusion content make it ideal for laser applications and harsh environmental conditions. TECHSPEC® UV Fused Silica Plano-Convex (PCX) Lenses VIS-EXT Coated feature industry leading diameter and centration specifications, making them ideal for integration into demanding imaging and targeting applications. These lenses are VIS-EXT coated to increase their coating performance in the visible region.
