Plano convex lenses are made from glasses like UV grade fused silica, N-BK7, N-SF11, LASFN9, silicon and MgF2 and germanium. Plano-convex lenses are flat on one side and with a precision convex surface on another side. Plano-convex lenses are used to focus, collect and collimate the light to one point. It's the ideal choice to focus parallel light to a single point. They are useful in lasers, medical, detectors, condensers, measuring instrument and fiber optics. Our precision plano-convex lenses are polished to tight tolerances minimizing wave front distortion. Low cost and fast delivery are available from us.
