UV Fused Silica Double-Convex (DCX) Lenses
From fast modifications to stock optics to custom designs, we can help you take your optical system from design to prototype to volume production. Contact us to get started today.
TECHSPEC® UV Fused Silica Double-Convex (DCX) Lenses, also referred to as bi-convex lenses, have two positive, symmetrical faces with equal radii on both sides. These lenses are generally recommended for finite imaging applications with a conjugate ratio (ratio between object distance and image distance) between 0.2 and 5. At a conjugate ratio of 1, aberrations such as spherical aberration, chromatic aberration, coma, and distortion are minimized or canceled due to the symmetric lens design. TECHSPEC® UV Fused Silica Double-Convex (DCX) Lenses have a precision fused silica substrate. These lenses are available uncoated or with UV-AR, UV-VIS, VIS-EXT, VIS-NIR, VIS 0°, NIR I, or NIR II coatings.
