The 47-588 is a 25 mm diameter Shortpass Filter with a thickness of 3mm, designed for use in optical systems that require the removal of specific wavelengths of light. This filter, offered by Edmund Optics, features a catalog number of 47-588 and is available for purchase through their official website. The filter's coating, EDM 47-820, is applied to both the front and back surfaces, providing consistent performance and protection.
The Shortpass Filter is designed to block transmission of longer wavelengths while allowing shorter wavelengths to pass through. In this case, the cut-on wavelength is 0nm, and the cut-off wavelength is 900nm. This makes the 47-588 particularly suitable for applications where it's necessary to isolate light in the ultraviolet and visible spectrums.
The filter is shaped as a Thin Lens, which can be beneficial in certain optical configurations. The base shape is circular, and the material ID is UVFS Mal-1965. The filter's physical data, including the cut-on and cut-off wavelengths, are precisely controlled during manufacturing to ensure high-quality performance.
