The MF-px-38.1-254 is a 38.1 mm diameter Plano-Convex lens, sourced from Alkor Technologies. This lens is designed for use in the ultraviolet spectrum, specifically at a wavelength of 266 nm. The Plano-Convex design, where one side is flat and the other is curved, is a common configuration for optical lenses, offering a wide range of applications.
The lens has an effective focal length (EFL) of 254mm, which is the distance from the center of the lens to the focal point when the lens is imaging an object at infinity. This long focal length makes it suitable for applications requiring high magnification or narrow fields of view.
The lens is made from Magnesium Fluoride (MgF2), a material known for its excellent optical properties, including a high transmission rate in the ultraviolet spectrum. The lens is uncoated, meaning it does not have any additional layers applied to enhance its optical performance. However, uncoated lenses can be more susceptible to surface reflections and may not perform as well in high-light conditions.
The lens has a thickness of 2.1mm at the edge and 3.9mm at the center. The inner and outer radii are 0mm, and the radius of curvature (R1) is 100.84mm. The lens is circular in shape, providing symmetry and consistency in its optical performance.
