The 63-406 is a Neutral Density Filter, measuring 25 mm in diameter, sourced from the reputable optical vendor, Edmund Optics. This filter is designed to reduce the intensity of light without altering its color composition, making it an ideal choice for various applications in photography, cinematography, and scientific research.
The filter boasts a non-reflective coating, which minimizes surface reflections, thereby enhancing transmission and image quality. This coating is applied to both the front and back surfaces, ensuring optimal performance from both directions. The OD (Optical Density) of this filter is 0.3, indicating a reduction of approximately 25% in light intensity.
The filter is designed for use with Near-Infrared (NIR) light, specifically within the wavelength range of 700-1200nm. This makes it suitable for applications involving NIR light sources or detectors. The filter has a thickness of 1.5mm and a base shape of a circle, which is a common and versatile shape in optical systems.
The material ID of this filter is UVFS MAL-1965, providing a unique identifier for its specific material composition. This information can be crucial for users who need to consider material properties such as transmission, absorption, or dispersion in their applications.
The filter is available in a thin lens shape, which is advantageous in applications where space is limited or a slim profile is required. The catalog number for this item is 63-406, and it is currently in stock, according to the vendor's website.
