The 86-396 is a 50 mm diameter Dichroic Laser Beam Combiner, specifically designed for use at the 427nm wavelength. This precision optical component is sourced from the renowned vendor, Edmund Optics, and is available for immediate use, as indicated by its "Valid - in stock" weblink status.
This Dichroic Filter is a type of optical element, engineered to combine or separate light beams of different wavelengths. It is circular in shape, constructed from the material ID UVFS MAL-1965, and has a thickness of 3.5mm. The filter's geometry, including its 50mm diameter, is designed to accommodate a wide range of optical applications.
The 86-396 features a cut-on wavelength of 427nm, meaning it begins to transmit light at this point of the spectrum. Its cut-off wavelength is 0nm, indicating that it transmits all wavelengths above 427nm. This specific wavelength transmission property makes it ideal for applications that require the combination of specific light frequencies.
The filter's coating is another critical aspect of its design. Both the front and back surfaces are coated with EDM 86-382, a coating specifically designed to enhance the filter's performance and durability. The filter's shape is that of a Thin Lens, further expanding its potential applications in various optical systems.
