Request InfoMKS/NewportIRVINE, Calif., Jan. 22, 2010 – Newport Corp. has introduced a series of colored-glass alternative filters that exhibit durability and wavelength stability in any environment. Available are 34 long-wave pass thin-film filters in four standard sizes to provide good spectral performance. They are suitable for use in applications where very steep transitions from blocking to high transmission are required. Designed to address the needs of OEM customers, they do not contain any hazardous substances, such as cadmium or lead, rendering them fully RoHS-compliant, which is important because it ensures that the filters, when...See full productRelated content from Photonics MediaPRODUCTSBioPhotonics May/Jun 2023 IssueBandpass FiltersThe ADVANTECH™ hard coat bandpass filters from Andover Corp. offer steep slopes, high light transmission, durability, and long life for demanding applications.
