The 88-271 is a Neutral Density Filter with a 25 mm diameter and a thickness of 3 mm, designed for use in the ultraviolet (UV) and near-infrared (NIR) spectrum. This filter is manufactured by Edmund Optics, a leading provider of optical components.
The filter features a UV-NIR Metallic Based construction, which provides excellent neutral density performance across the 190-1700nm wavelength range. The neutral density is rated at OD 0.5, meaning it reduces the light intensity by a factor of 1.41. This makes it ideal for applications where a controlled reduction of light intensity is required, such as in high-powered laser systems or in astronomy for observing bright celestial bodies.
The front and back surfaces of the filter are coated with EDM 88-265, a coating that enhances the filter's performance and durability. The filter has a thin lens shape, which minimizes optical aberrations and ensures high-quality imaging.
