The 14-036 is a high-performance dichroic shortpass ultrafast filter, designed and manufactured by Edmund Optics. This filter is specifically engineered for use in ultrafast laser systems, where it serves to reflect shorter wavelengths while transmitting longer wavelengths. The filter has a physical dimension of 25.2 mm in width and 35.6 mm in height, making it suitable for integration into a wide range of optical systems.
The 14-036 filter boasts a low group delay dispersion (GDD), which is a critical parameter in ultrafast laser applications. Low GDD helps to maintain the temporal integrity of ultrashort laser pulses, reducing the likelihood of pulse broadening and other detrimental effects. This makes the filter ideal for use in applications such as femtosecond laser machining, nonlinear microscopy, and high-speed spectroscopy.
The filter's coating is another notable feature. Both the front and back surfaces are coated with EDM 14-030, a proprietary coating developed by Edmund Optics. This coating ensures high transmission at longer wavelengths and high reflectivity at shorter wavelengths, as defined by the filter's cut-on and cut-off wavelengths of 0 nm and 950 nm, respectively.
In terms of geometry, the filter has a thickness of 1.05 mm, which is optimized for minimal optical loss and distortion. The filter's shape is that of a thin lens, which allows for easy integration into optical systems that require focusing or collimation elements.
