The 86-696 Dichroic Shortpass Filter is a high-quality optical component sourced from Edmund Optics. This filter is designed to selectively pass light of shorter wavelengths while reflecting or absorbing longer wavelengths, making it ideal for various applications in photonics, spectroscopy, and imaging.
The filter has a rectangular shape with dimensions of 25.2 mm in width and 35.6 mm in height, providing a substantial surface area for light interaction. It features a thickness of 1.05 mm, offering a balance between robustness and light transmission.
The 86-696 Filter is designed to operate at a base wavelength of 588 nm, making it suitable for applications that require the transmission of visible light. Its cut-on wavelength is 0 nm, indicating that it allows all wavelengths shorter than its cut-off wavelength to pass through. The cut-off wavelength is 1050 nm, meaning it effectively blocks or reflects light with wavelengths longer than this value.
This filter is coated with EDM 86-678 on both the front and back surfaces, enhancing its performance and durability. The coating helps to reduce surface reflections, improve transmission, and protect the filter from environmental factors.
The 86-696 Filter is available in a Thin Lens shape, which is a flat, thin optical component. This shape is ideal for applications where space is limited or where the filter needs to be integrated with other optical elements.
