The 64-598 is a Shortpass Filter with a 12.5 mm diameter and a thickness of 1.5 mm, sourced from the reputable optical components vendor, Edmund Optics. This filter is designed to transmit light with wavelengths up to 725 nm while blocking longer wavelengths, making it ideal for applications that require the removal of infrared light.
The filter features a traditional coating on both the front and back surfaces, identified as 'edm 64-598'. This coating enhances the filter's performance and durability, ensuring reliable operation in various environments. The filter's geometry, including its diameter and thickness, is designed to accommodate a wide range of optical systems, providing flexibility in system design.
The filter's physical data, specifically its cut-on and cut-off wavelengths, are finely tuned to optimize its shortpass filtering capabilities. The cut-on wavelength is 0 nm, indicating that the filter begins blocking light immediately at the lower end of the spectrum. The cut-off wavelength is 725 nm, meaning that it effectively blocks all light with wavelengths above this value.
This filter is available in a Thin Lens shape, which is advantageous in optical systems where space is at a premium. The catalog number for this item is 64-598, and it can be found on the Edmund Optics website, where it is currently in stock.
