The FBH1550-12 Premium Bandpass Filter is a high-quality optical component designed for precise wavelength selection in the near-infrared region. This filter, sourced from Thorlabs, is circular in shape with a diameter of 25 mm and a thickness of 2 mm, making it suitable for a wide range of optical systems.
The filter is specifically designed for a central wavelength (CWL) of 1550 nm, a region commonly used in optical communication systems. It has a full width at half maximum (FWHM) of 12 nm, indicating a narrow bandwidth and high spectral purity. This means it allows light transmission in a narrow range around the CWL while effectively blocking out unwanted wavelengths.
The FBH1550-12 filter is coated with a proprietary coating, denoted as 'tho fbh1550-12' on both the front and back surfaces. This coating enhances its performance by reducing reflection and increasing transmission efficiency. The filter's shape is described as a Thin Lens, suggesting it may have additional optical power or be designed to focus light.
