Fused Silica(UVFS) Double-Convex Lenses

Fused silica is the amorphous (glassy) state of silicon oxide (quartz, silica). It is a typical glass with a long-range disordered atomic structure. It provides its high service temperature and low coefficient of thermal expansion by cross-linking its three-dimensional structure.

Compared to other types of glass, fused silica transmits UV spectrum waves more effectively

Fused silica double convex lens is a lens with two convex spherical surface that includes an incident surface and an emitting surface, characterized by a longer focal length at the middle of the lens surface and a shorter focal length at the end of each lens surface it been widely applied for laser systems and infrared systems, such as telescope, microscope,laser device and ladar Ect.

Our Company can provide fused silica double-convex Lenses with diameters from 2-300mm and thicknesses from 0.12-60mm (accuracy up to 20-10, 1/10L@633nm),coating AR, BBAR, AF or upon request.
