The 86-703 is a Notch Filter with a diameter of 25 mm, designed and manufactured by Edmund Optics. This filter is specifically designed to block a narrow range of wavelengths around 830 nm while transmitting wavelengths on either side of this range. The notch filter is a crucial component in various optical systems, including spectroscopy, interferometry, and beam combining, where specific wavelengths need to be isolated or suppressed.
The filter is mounted and hard coated for durability, with an outer diameter of 4.0 mm. It features a Thin Lens shape, which is beneficial in applications where a flat surface is not feasible or desirable. The filter's geometry, including its 5 mm thickness, is designed to provide optimal performance while minimizing optical aberrations.
The 86-703 filter is made from UVFS Mal-1965 material, a common choice for notch filters due to its excellent optical properties. The front and back surfaces of the filter are coated with EDM 86-701, a coating that enhances the filter's performance and durability.
