The 48-633 25.4 mm Dia. SCHOTT BG3 (UV-VIS) Deep Blue Colored Glass Bandpass Filter is a high-quality optical component designed for use in the ultraviolet and visible light spectrum. Sourced from the reputable vendor Edmund Optics, this filter is a part of their extensive catalog of optical elements.
This filter is specifically designed with a diameter of 25.4 mm and a thickness of 3 mm, making it suitable for a wide range of optical applications. The BG3 (UV-VIS) glass material is known for its excellent optical properties, particularly in the ultraviolet and visible light ranges. The filter is coated with the EDM 48-633 coating on both the front and back surfaces, enhancing its performance and durability.
The filter's primary function is to allow light transmission within a specific wavelength range while blocking light outside of this range. In this case, the filter is designed to allow light transmission at 356nm, making it ideal for applications that require precise wavelength control. The physical data of the filter, including the central wavelength (CWL), is also provided, ensuring users have all the necessary information for their specific application needs.
The filter's shape is defined as a thin lens, which is a type of lens with a small thickness compared to its diameter. This shape is often used in optical systems where a flat surface is required.
