Plano-Concave (PCV) Lenses

Plano Concave Lenses (PCV) are ideal for beam expansion, light projection, and focal length adjustment in optical systems. Designed with a single concave surface and a negative focal length, these high-precision lenses effectively diverge light for laser optics, medical imaging, microscopy, and fiber optics applications. Position PCV lenses with the Plano (flat) surface toward the focal plane for optimal performance.

Edmund Optics offers the largest selection of off-the-shelf Plano Concave Lenses, available in a variety of focal lengths, substrates—including N-BK7, UV Fused Silica, and Zinc Selenide (ZnSe)—and anti-reflection coatings for optimized performance across the UV, Visible, and IR spectrums. Coating options such as UV-AR, MgF₂, VIS 0°, VIS-NIR, and NIR-II enhance light transmission and reduce reflection. Standard, volume, and custom solutions are available to meet your application needs.
