The 88-280 is a Neutral Density Filter, specifically designed for use in the ultraviolet (UV) and near-infrared (NIR) spectrum, with a diameter of 50 mm and a thickness of 5 mm. This filter is sourced from Edmund Optics, a leading vendor in the optical industry, and is identified by the catalog number 88-280.
The filter features a UV-NIR metallic based neutral density coating, denoted as 'uvfs mal- 1965', on both the front and back surfaces. This coating provides an optical density (OD) of 1.5, which is equivalent to a transmission of approximately 3.16% across the entire UV-NIR spectrum, ranging from 190 to 1700 nanometers. This makes the filter ideal for applications requiring consistent light attenuation across a broad range of wavelengths.
The 88-280 filter is designed in a thin lens shape, which helps to minimize optical aberrations and distortions. The filter's geometry, including its 50 mm diameter, is designed to accommodate a wide range of optical systems and setups.
