The DIF-50S-YEL is a high-quality dichroic filter, measuring 50 x 50 mm, designed for use in the visible light spectrum with a central wavelength of 520nm. This filter is sourced from the reputable optical components manufacturer, OptoSigma.
The filter is made from B270 Schott glass, a borosilicate glass known for its excellent optical properties, including high transparency and low autofluorescence. The glass has a thickness of 1mm, providing durability while maintaining minimal optical distortion.
As a dichroic filter, it is designed to selectively reflect or transmit light based on its wavelength. In this case, the DIF-50S-YEL is optimized for the 520nm wavelength, making it ideal for applications such as fluorescence microscopy, laser systems, and other applications where specific wavelength filtration is required.
The filter features identical coatings on both the front and back surfaces, denoted as 'opt dif-50s-yel 0'. This coating enhances the filter's performance at the specified wavelength. The filter's shape is classified as a 'Thin Lens', indicating its suitability for use in optical systems where minimal thickness and weight are desirable.
According to the vendor's information, the filter is currently in stock and can be purchased directly from the OptoSigma website via the provided weblink.
