The 34-733 is a high-performance fluorescence dichroic filter, designed and manufactured by Edmund Optics. This filter is specifically engineered for use in fluorescence applications, where it plays a crucial role in separating and directing light of different wavelengths. The filter has a rectangular shape, with a width of 25.2 mm and a height of 35.6 mm, making it suitable for a wide range of optical systems.
The 34-733 filter is designed to have a cut-on wavelength of 495 nm, meaning it begins to transmit light at this wavelength. Below this wavelength, the filter reflects or blocks light, a property known as high pass. This characteristic makes it ideal for use in fluorescence microscopy, where it can be used to separate excitation light from emitted fluorescence.
The filter is made from UVFS, a material with a refractive index of 1.46, and has a thickness of 1.05 mm. This combination of material and thickness ensures high optical quality and durability. The filter's coating, EDM 34-732, is applied to both the front and back surfaces, further enhancing its performance and longevity.
In terms of geometry, the filter is shaped as a thin lens, which can be beneficial in certain optical configurations.
