11-484 12.5 x 12.5 mm Red Dichroic Filter; t=2mm 605nm

The 11-484 is a 12.5 x 12.5 mm Red Dichroic Filter, a specialized optical component designed for precise wavelength discrimination. Sourced from the renowned vendor Edmund Optics, this filter is a high-quality, reliable choice for various applications.

This filter features a dichroic coating, a type of coating that reflects certain wavelengths of light and transmits others. In this case, the filter is designed to reflect red light at a wavelength of 605nm, making it ideal for applications where red light needs to be isolated or enhanced. The filter's geometry, with a width and height of 12.5mm each, ensures a substantial surface area for optimal light interaction.

The filter is constructed from borofloat33, a type of glass known for its excellent optical properties and durability. With a thickness of 2mm, it provides a good balance between robustness and light transmission. The filter's shape is that of a thin lens, which further enhances its light-manipulating capabilities.

The coating on both the front and back surfaces of the filter is edm 52-527. This coating plays a crucial role in the filter's performance, ensuring the specified wavelength discrimination. The filter's physical data, with a cut-on wavelength of 605nm and a cut-off wavelength of 0nm, further underscores its wavelength-specific properties.
