SO-L30 SERIES

UV Fused Silica Positive Meniscus Lens

SO-L30 UV fused silica positive meniscus lenses focus light while using two curved surfaces to support aberration control in compound systems. They are suitable for UV-visible beam delivery, imaging objectives and relay groups that require positive power with a prescribed meniscus orientation.

Product Overview

Configure UV Fused Silica Positive Meniscus Lens around focal geometry and coating

Use effective focal length and back focal length for axial placement, then verify both surface radii, center thickness, edge thickness and dioptric power. The asymmetric surface prescription means orientation must follow the ray-trace design.

Choose this series when fused-silica transmission and thermal behavior are required together with a positive meniscus form.

Optical behavior

Use effective focal length and back focal length for axial placement, then verify both surface radii, center thickness, edge thickness and dioptric power. The asymmetric surface prescription means orientation must follow the ray-trace design.

Selection and integration

Choose this series when fused-silica transmission and thermal behavior are required together with a positive meniscus form.

Need a different diameter, tolerance or coating?

Custom substrate materials, dimensions, angular tolerances and coating bands can be reviewed for prototype and production quantities.
