Plano-Convex Lenses
Plano-convex lens, as the most common lens element, features a flat and a convex surface. This spherical lens exhibits exceptional performance in various applications, such as beam expansion, imaging, beam collimation, focus collimation, and point source collimation. Due to its unique optical characteristics, the plano-convex lens has found widespread applications in fields such as laser cutting, optical fiber communication, telescope manufacturing, and medical equipment.
CLZ Optical Co., Ltd. stocks plano-convex lenses ranging from 10mm to 250mm in diameter with a full range of focal lengths to meet your needs. We can also customize optical components to meet your requirements using a variety of optical materials, such as optical glass, fused silica, silicon, and more.

Applications of Plano-convex Lens
The plano-convex lens has a wide range of applications in the field of optics. Here is an in-depth exploration of its application areas:
lImaging Equipment: Plano-convex lenses play a key role in imaging optical systems such as camera lenses and telescope objectives. By adjusting the focal length, radius of curvature, and other parameters of the lens, the image quality, focal length range, and field of view can be optimized.
lMeasurement Instruments: In laser rangefinders, plano-convex lenses can achieve focusing and shaping of laser beams, improving ranging accuracy and stability. In microscopes, they are used for magnifying and imaging tiny objects, providing powerful support for scientific research.
lCommunication Systems: Plano-convex lenses are used in components such as optical fiber couplers and optical isolators. By adjusting the lens parameters, functions such as optical signal transmission, isolation, and coupling can be achieved, improving the performance and stability of communication systems.
lLaser Systems: Plano-convex lenses also play an important role in laser focusing and beam shaping.
lOther Fields: Besides the above-mentioned applications, plano-convex lenses are also widely used in projection equipment, scanners, copiers, and other fields, bringing convenience to people's lives and work.
Key Parameters of Plano-convex Lens
Understanding the key parameters of a plano-convex lens is crucial for selecting and using the lens. Here are explanations of several key parameters:
lFocal Length: The focal length is one of the most critical parameters of a plano-convex lens, determining the lens's ability to focus light. A longer focal length results in weaker focusing action of the lens on light, while a shorter focal length results in stronger focusing action.
lRadius of Curvature: The radius of curvature reflects the curvature of the convex surface of the plano-convex lens, determining the refraction angle of light by the lens. A smaller radius of curvature results in a larger refraction angle of light by the lens, while a larger radius of curvature results in a smaller refraction angle.
lThickness: The thickness of the plano-convex lens also affects its performance. Thicker lenses offer higher strength and stability but may also cause more light scattering and absorption. Therefore, when selecting the lens thickness, it is necessary to consider factors such as its strength, stability, and light transmittance comprehensively.
lDispersion: Dispersion refers to the phenomenon where the refraction angle of light differs for different wavelengths by the lens. The degree of dispersion of a plano-convex lens is affected by factors such as material, thickness, and radius of curvature. To reduce the impact of dispersion on the optical system, lenses with low dispersion characteristics can be used or dispersion compensation can be performed.
