Optical plano-convex lens high quality lens

A plano-convex lens is a single piece of lens with one flat surface and one convex surface. It has the ability to converge light.

And it is one of the most common and essential optical components. It is widely used in situations where parallel light needs to be focused or collimated.

A plano-convex lens is usually used as an element in camera lenses. Its focusing ability is important for image formation.

Therefore, the plano-convex lens minimizes spherical aberration to the greatest extent, producing clearer and sharper images.

What scenarios are suitable for plano-convex lens?

The plano-convex lense is suitable for various scenarios.

• Laser focusing and collimation
•  Imaging system (cameras, microscopes, etc.)
•  Beam expander
•  Testing and measuring instruments
•  Infrared optical system

What is the working principle of a plano-convex?

The working principle of a plano-convex lens is to use its structure with one flat and one convex surface. It makes the light to undergo refraction as it passes through the lens.

When parallel light rays enter the convex surface of the lens, they will be refracted and focused at the other side of the lens at the focal point.

Conversely, when a point light source is at the focal point position, after passing through the lens, it can emit parallel light.

Therefore, the plano-convex lens is often used for focusing or collimating light, and it has wide applications in optical devices such as laser systems and imaging equipment.
