The 46-054 is a 50.8 x 50.8 mm SCHOTT VG9 (VIS) Green Colored Glass Bandpass Filter, specifically designed for use in the visible light spectrum with a central wavelength of 526nm. This filter is sourced from the reputable optical components vendor, Edmund Optics.
The filter is a Color Glass type, characterized by its ability to selectively transmit light within a specific range of wavelengths while blocking others. This particular model is made from SCHOTT VG9 glass, a material known for its excellent optical properties and durability.
In terms of geometry, the filter has a square shape with dimensions of 50.8mm x 50.8mm, and a thickness of 3mm. This makes it suitable for use in a variety of optical systems where a square filter is required.
The filter's coating is another notable feature. Both the front and back surfaces are coated with the EDM 46-054 coating, which enhances its performance and durability. The coating helps to ensure optimal transmission of light at the specified wavelength, while also providing protection against environmental factors that could degrade the filter's performance over time.
The physical data of the filter includes a center wavelength of 526nm, which is the wavelength at which the filter is designed to transmit light most efficiently. This makes it ideal for applications that require the selective transmission of green light.
