The SCF-50S-44Y is a 50 x 50 mm Square Short Wave Cutoff Colored Glass Filter, offered by OptoSigma. This filter is designed with a cut-on wavelength of 440nm, making it ideal for applications that require the removal of shorter wavelengths from the light path. The filter's physical data indicates that it has a cut-off wavelength of 0, suggesting that it allows all wavelengths longer than 440nm to pass through.
The filter is 2.5mm thick, providing durability and resistance to optical damage. It features a rectangular base shape, commonly used in optical systems due to its ease of alignment and versatility. The filter's coating, 'opt scf-44y', is applied to both the front and back surfaces, further enhancing its performance and durability.
This filter is categorized as a Color Glass type, which is known for its ability to selectively transmit or block specific wavelengths based on their color. The SCF-50S-44Y, in particular, is designed to block wavelengths shorter than 440nm, making it suitable for applications such as fluorescence microscopy, where it's crucial to eliminate unwanted short-wavelength light.
