The 65-217 is a Bandpass Filter with a diameter of 50 mm, sourced from the reputable optical components vendor, Edmund Optics. This filter is specifically designed for applications requiring a narrow passband, making it ideal for tasks such as fluorescence microscopy, spectroscopy, and other precision optical systems.
The filter features a 10nm bandpass, centered at a wavelength of 535nm. This means it allows light within a narrow range around 535nm to pass through while blocking out other wavelengths. The cut-on wavelength is 530nm, and the cut-off wavelength is 540nm, further illustrating its narrow passband.
The filter is constructed with a hard coating on both the front and back surfaces, providing enhanced durability and resistance to scratches and other forms of damage. The coating is identified as 'edm 65-095', a detail that may be useful for those familiar with Edmund Optics' coating nomenclature.
The filter has a thickness of 3.5 mm, which is a standard value for many optical applications. It is shaped as a thin lens, a geometry that is often preferred in optical systems due to its minimal impact on the light path.
