  • Negative Focal Lengths for Beam Expansion or Light Projection Applications
  • Wavelength Range of 200 - 2200nm
  • Popular UV-AR Coating Option Available

TECHSPEC® UV Fused Silica Plano-Concave (PCV) Lenses are high performance UV optic elements, manufactured utilizing state of the art CNC equipment. Zygo’s GPI-XP Interferometer is used to assure the surface accuracy and performance of these UV optics. UV Grade lenses are precision manufactured using research-grade synthetic fused silica. In addition to providing excellent transmission characteristics and higher operating temperatures, synthetic fused silica also exhibits an exceptional inclusion specification and chemical purity. TECHSPEC® UV Fused Silica Plano-Concave (PCV) Lenses are an ideal choice for many laser and imaging applications, particularly those involving ultraviolet wavelengths. A broadband anti-reflection coating is available for optimized throughput in the ultraviolet spectrum.
