The 46-064 50.8 x 50.8 mm SCHOTT OG590 Red Longpass Color Glass Filter is a specialized optical component designed for applications that require longpass filtering at a specific wavelength. This filter, sourced from Edmund Optics, is a Color Glass type with a Base Shape of Rectangular, making it suitable for a wide range of optical systems.
The filter has a geometry of 50.8 mm in width and height, with a thickness of 3 mm. It is made from SCHOTT's OG590 material, which is known for its excellent optical properties. The filter is designed to cut on at 590 nm, allowing light of this wavelength and longer to pass through, while blocking shorter wavelengths. The cut off is 0 nm, indicating that it allows all longer wavelengths to pass through.
The filter features a coating on both the front and back surfaces. This coating, identified as EDM 54-657, is likely a broadband anti-reflection coating designed to minimize surface reflections and improve transmission. The filter's shape is Thin Lens, suggesting that it may have some light-bending properties, although this is not explicitly stated in the provided data.
The catalog number for this item is 46-064, and it is currently in stock, according to the vendor's website. The filter's weblink is valid and provides more detailed information and specifications. This filter is a reliable and versatile option for applications that require longpass filtering at the 590 nm wavelength.
