The 36-263 is a 25 mm diameter Neutral Density Filter, specifically designed for use in the Near-Infrared (NIR) spectrum with a wavelength of 588 nm. This filter is manufactured by Edmund Optics, a leading provider of optical components. The filter is part of their extensive catalog, which includes a wide variety of optical elements from different vendors worldwide.
The filter is metallic based, which provides excellent durability and stability. It has an Optical Density (OD) of 3.5, which means it reduces the intensity of light by a factor of 3500. This makes it ideal for use in high-intensity light applications, where it is necessary to reduce the light level without altering the color balance.
The filter has a circular shape and a thin lens design, which helps to minimize optical aberrations. The geometry includes a diameter of 25 mm and a thickness of 3 mm. The coating on both the front and back surfaces is EDM 36-262, which provides additional protection and enhances the performance of the filter.
The filter is currently in stock and available for purchase through the Edmund Optics website. The weblink provided leads directly to the product page, where more information about the filter, including its specifications and pricing, can be found.
