The 740DIB12 is a 12.5 mm diameter Standard Interference Bandpass Filter, specifically designed to transmit light in the 740nm wavelength range. This filter is sourced from Knight Optical, a reputable vendor known for their high-quality optical elements.
The filter is a Bandpass type, which means it allows light to pass through a specific range of wavelengths while blocking out other wavelengths. In this case, the cut-on wavelength is 735nm, and the cut-off wavelength is 745nm, making it highly effective in isolating the 740nm wavelength. The Central Wavelength (CWL) of this filter is also 740nm, ensuring optimal performance in this specific range.
The 740DIB12 is made from UVFS Mal-1965, a material known for its excellent optical properties. The filter has a Thin Lens shape, which is beneficial for applications that require a compact optical design. The geometry of the filter includes a diameter of 12.5mm and a thickness of 6.1mm, making it suitable for a wide range of optical systems.
The filter's coating is another notable feature. Both the front and back surfaces of the filter are coated with KNI 740DIB, a coating specifically designed to enhance the filter's performance in the 740nm wavelength range. This coating ensures high transmission and excellent blocking of unwanted wavelengths.
