The 5CGA-345 is a high-performance colored glass alternative longpass filter, designed and manufactured by MKS/Newport. This filter is part of the UVFS MAL-1965 material ID family, renowned for its exceptional optical properties. The filter is circular in shape, with a diameter of 12.7 mm and a thickness of 1.1 mm, making it suitable for a wide range of optical applications.
The primary function of this filter is to cut on at 345nm, allowing light of longer wavelengths to pass through while blocking shorter wavelengths. The cut-off wavelength is 0nm, indicating that it allows all longer wavelengths to pass through. This makes it an ideal choice for applications where the detection of longer wavelengths is crucial.
The filter features a New 20CGA-345 coating on both the front and back surfaces, further enhancing its optical performance. The coating ensures high transmission and low reflection, thereby improving the overall efficiency of the optical system.
The 5CGA-345 filter is designed in a thin lens shape, which not only contributes to its compactness but also minimizes optical aberrations. This filter is currently in stock and available for immediate purchase through the Newport website, as indicated by its valid weblink status.
