Plano-Convex vs. Biconvex Lens: Differences & Focal Length Formulas

Plano-convex and biconvex lenses are the two most common positive (converging) lens shapes. Both bend parallel light rays to a focus; the difference is that a plano-convex lens has only one curved surface, while a biconvex lens has two. Key Specifications at a Glance Parameter Typical Value Substrate N-BK7, UV fused silica Diameter 5 mm–100 mm Focal length range 15 mm–1000 mm...
