The FBP01-560/14-12.5 is a single-band bandpass filter, designed and manufactured by Semrock, a renowned vendor in the optical industry. This filter is part of the Nanopede series, known for its high-performance optical characteristics.
The filter is circular in shape, with a diameter of 12.5mm, and a thickness of 2mm. It is made from fused silica, specifically from the mal-1965 material ID, ensuring durability and stability. The filter is designed to operate at a central wavelength of 560nm, making it suitable for applications that require precise wavelength selection in this region.
The physical data of the filter includes a cut-on wavelength of 553nm and a cut-off wavelength of 567nm. This means that the filter will begin to transmit light at 553nm and stop transmitting at 567nm, providing a narrow band of wavelengths for transmission. The cut-on and cut-off wavelengths are crucial in determining the filter's performance and its ability to reject unwanted wavelengths.
The filter's coating is another essential feature. Both the front and back surfaces of the filter are coated with the Semrock FBP01-560 14 coating. This coating is specifically designed to enhance the filter's performance, providing high transmission and excellent blocking characteristics.
The filter's shape is thin lens, which is beneficial in applications where the filter needs to be placed close to the focal plane of the system. This shape also minimizes the risk of vignetting, ensuring that the entire field of view is uniformly filtered.
