The 86-342 is a Bandpass Filter with a diameter of 12.5 mm, sourced from the reputable optical components vendor, Edmund Optics. This filter is specifically designed for fluorescence applications, featuring a center wavelength (CWL) of 475nm and a 50nm bandwidth.
The filter is made from UVFS MAL-1965 material, a common choice for optical applications due to its excellent transmission properties and durability. It has a thickness of 2mm, providing sufficient structural integrity for most applications.
The 86-342 filter is hard coated on both the front and back surfaces with EDM 86-342, a coating that enhances the filter's performance and longevity. This coating helps to reduce unwanted reflections and increase transmission, improving the overall quality of the light passing through the filter.
The filter's geometry is defined by a 12.5mm diameter, making it compatible with a wide range of optical systems. The cut-on wavelength is 447nm, and the cut-off wavelength is 503nm, providing a narrow band of wavelengths for precise optical filtering.
This filter is currently in stock and available for purchase through the Edmund Optics website, as indicated by its valid weblink status. The item data also provides a catalog number for easy reference and ordering.
