Cylindrical lens is used to correct astigmatism in the eye, and, in rangefinders, to produce astigmatism, stretching a point of light into a line.They are available in either plano concave or plano convex configurations. Plano-Concave Cylindrical lenses have a negative focal length and are used for image reduction or to spread light. Plano-Convex Cylindrical lenses have a positive focal length, which makes them ideal for collecting and focusing light for many imaging applications.
Double-Convex Lenses are used in image relay applications, or for imaging objects at close conjugates. Double-Convex Lenses have positive focal lengths, along with two convex surfaces with equal radii. Aberrations will increase as the conjugate ratios increase. DCV Lenses are used in a range of industries or applications.
VY Optics offers a wide variety of Double-Convex Lenses in a range of substrates or anti-reflection coatings for maximum performance in the Ultraviolet (UV), Visible, or Infrared (IR). Anti-reflection coatings include UV-AR, UV Fused Silica or Calcium Fluoride (CaF2) substrates are also available for additional performance in the Ultraviolet (UV) or Infrared (IR) spectrums. UF Fused Silica Double-Convex Lenses are ideal for close conjugate imaging systems utilizing Ultraviolet (UV) illumination. Calcium Fluoride (CaF2) offers a very wide transmission range of 350nm - 7μm.
