Optical Surfaces has supplied several sets of ultra-high quality plano-convex lenses to the MAX IV Laboratory.

Biconvex Lenses at Shanghai Optics At Shanghai Optics we produce biconvex or double convex lenses with K9 borosilicate crown glass, BK7 Schott glass, quartz, sapphire, fused silica, CaF2, ZnSe, and ...

ECOPTIK - Double Convex LensThe double convex lens/mirror is symmetrical across both its horizontal and vertical axis. Each of the lens's two faces can be thought of as originally being part of a ...

Lenses are used in cameras, telescopes, binoculars, microscopes and corrective glasses. A lens can be converging (convex) or diverging (concave).

The properties of concave and convex lenses were first described around the year 1000, although magnifiers in the form of lens-shaped crystals or glass may have been used much earlier.

Lenses can either be convex/ converging or concave/ diverging. Convex lenses take parallel light rays from distant objects and bend them to converge at a single point known as the focal point.
