The 66-093 50 mm Dia. Hoya R-60 Red Longpass Color Glass Filter is a specialized optical component designed for applications requiring longpass filtering at a wavelength of 600nm. Sourced from the renowned optical vendor Edmund Optics, this filter is a part of their extensive catalog, boasting high-quality materials and precise manufacturing.
This filter is a Color Glass type, characterized by its ability to selectively transmit light within a specific wavelength range while blocking other wavelengths. The R-60, in particular, is a Longpass filter, permitting transmission of wavelengths above 600nm and effectively blocking shorter wavelengths. This feature makes it ideal for applications such as fluorescence microscopy, heat-sensing devices, and other scenarios where isolating longer wavelengths is crucial.
The filter has a circular geometry with a diameter of 50mm and a thickness of 2.5mm, adhering to the Thin Lens shape standard. This geometry ensures easy integration with various optical systems, providing flexibility in system design. The filter's material ID, UVFS MAL-1965, indicates its specific composition, contributing to its optical properties.
The 66-093 filter's physical data includes a cut-on wavelength of 600nm and a cut-off wavelength of 0nm. This means that it begins transmitting light at 600nm and continues transmitting all longer wavelengths without any cut-off point. The filter's coating, EDM 66-043, is applied to both the front and back surfaces, further enhancing its performance and durability.
