Plano-Convex (PCX) Lenses are with a positive focal length, so as ideal for collecting and focusing light in imaging applications. They can be also used in a variety of applications such as emitters, detectors, lasers, and fiber optics.

Plano-Convex Lenses are ideal for light collimation or for focusing applications utilizing monochromatic illumination, in a wide range of industries including industrial, pharmaceutical, robotics, or defense. PCX Lenses have one convex surface. For maximum efficiency, the second, plano (flat) surface is supposed to face the desired focal plane.

Visoptos’ PCX lenses are available in a range of coating or substrate options. Anti-reflection coatings range from the Ultraviolet (UV) to the Infrared (IR), UV-AR, UV-VIS, MgF2, VIS 0°, VIS-NIR, NIR I, NIR II, or Telecom-NIR. Additional coatings designed specifically for laser wavelengths, such as 266nm, 355nm, 532nm, or 1064nm are also offered. Germanium (Ge), Silicon (Si), or Zinc Selenide (ZnSe) substrates are ideal for Infrared (IR) applications.
