Request InfoDelta Optical Thin Film A/SDelta Optical Thin Film A/S has announced its fourth generation of Continuously Variable Short-Wave Pass and Continuously Variable Long-Wave Pass Filters. The filters are coated with ultra-hard surface coatings, which are produced with an advanced plasma process that builds layers with a much higher packing density than traditional hard coatings. These optical filters feature high edge steepness and transmission levels, while also improving blocking. Coated on a single-fused silica substrate, the filters exhibit minimal auto-fluorescence and a high threshold to laser damage.
