The 46-065 25.4 mm Dia. SCHOTT RG715 Black Longpass Color Glass Filter is a high-quality optical component designed for applications that require longpass filtering at a specific wavelength. This filter, sourced from Edmund Optics, is a circular color glass filter with a diameter of 25.4 mm and a thickness of 3 mm, making it suitable for a wide range of optical systems.
The filter is made from SCHOTT RG715 glass, a material known for its excellent optical properties and durability. The RG715 designation indicates that this filter has a cut-on wavelength of 715 nm, meaning it begins to transmit light at this wavelength and blocks all wavelengths shorter than this. This makes it ideal for applications where longer wavelengths need to be isolated or emphasized.
The filter's coating is another crucial aspect of its design. Both the front and back surfaces are coated with EDM 54-661, a broadband antireflection coating that reduces surface reflections and increases transmission. This coating ensures that the maximum amount of light passes through the filter, enhancing the overall performance of your optical system.
The filter's shape is defined as a Thin Lens, which is a lens with a very small focal length compared to its diameter. This shape allows the filter to be easily integrated into various optical systems without causing significant aberrations or distortions.
