The 46-047 is a 25.4 mm diameter bandpass filter from Edmund Optics, designed for use in UV applications with a central wavelength of 355nm. This filter is made from SCHOTT UG1 (UV) colored glass, a material known for its excellent transmission characteristics in the ultraviolet range.
The filter features a black coating on both the front and back surfaces, identified as 'edm 46-047'. This coating enhances the filter's performance by reducing unwanted reflections and stray light, thereby improving the overall signal-to-noise ratio.
The geometry of the filter includes a diameter of 25.4mm and a thickness of 3mm, making it suitable for a wide range of optical systems. The shape of the filter is defined as a 'Thin Lens', indicating its potential use in lens systems where minimal optical path differences are desired.
The physical data of the filter specifies a central wavelength (cwl) of 355nm, which is the wavelength at which the filter exhibits its highest transmission. This makes the 46-047 an ideal choice for applications that require precise filtering in the UV range.
The filter is currently in stock and available for purchase through the Edmund Optics website, as indicated by its 'Valid - in stock' weblink status.
