The 14-482 is a 50 x 50 mm SCHOTT GG435 Yellow Colored Glass Longpass Filter, designed to transmit light at wavelengths above 435nm. This filter is sourced from Edmund Optics, a leading vendor in the optical industry, and is available for immediate purchase with a valid "in stock" status.
The filter is made of color glass, a type of optical filter that uses dyes or pigments to absorb unwanted wavelengths. This particular model is made from SCHOTT GG435, a high-quality glass material known for its excellent optical properties. The filter has a thickness of 2mm, providing durability and stability during operation.
The 14-482 filter features a longpass cut-on wavelength of 435nm, meaning it begins to transmit light at this wavelength and continues to transmit longer wavelengths. The cut-off wavelength is 0nm, indicating that it transmits all wavelengths longer than 435nm. This makes it ideal for applications that require the removal of shorter wavelengths, such as fluorescence microscopy or astronomical imaging.
The filter's coating is another notable feature. Both the front and back surfaces are coated with "edm 14-482", a proprietary coating developed by Edmund Optics. This coating enhances the filter's performance by reducing surface reflections and improving transmission.
The filter's rectangular shape and thin lens geometry make it compatible with a wide range of optical systems. Its dimensions of 50 x 50 mm provide a large aperture, allowing for high light throughput and excellent image quality.
