What is typical application for 420nm Bandpass Filter?
A 420nm bandpass filter is an optical interference filter that transmits only a narrow spectral band centered around 420nm while blocking all other wavelengths of light. The 420nm Bandpass Filter finds broad applications across multiple fields:
- Analytical Instruments and Clinical Chemistry: Used in clinical chemistry analyzers, colorimetry, and environmental testing instruments to isolate the pure 420nm band from complex optical signals for quantitative analysis.
- Life Sciences and Fluorescence Detection: Employed in fluorescence analyzers, microplate readers, and other equipment as key components for exciting or detecting the signals of specific fluorescent dyes.
- Laser Spectroscopy and Elemental Analysis: Applied to isolate and extract the spectral lines of specific lasers, and also utilized in atomic spectroscopy and related fields.
- Industrial and Specialized Imaging: Used in machine vision, biometric identification, and multi-band detection systems to eliminate interfering light and obtain high-contrast images.
What are key parameters when choose for a suitable Bandpass Filter?
When selecting a Narrow Bandpass Filter, normally the following factors need to be taken into consideration:
- Central Wavelength (CWL):CWL is one of key parameter to designate first, it refer to the central wavelength at stable high transmission rate passband.
- Peak or Average Transmittance: typically ≥90%, Higher transmittance might need Anti-reflective(AR) coating.
- Full width at half maximum (FWHM): FWHM refer to the interval between the two wavelength points where the transmittance rate reaches 50%.
- Blocking rate: usually in terms of optical density(OD), OD2-OD3 for standard and higher will be OD4-OD6 per requirement.
- Angle of Incidence (AOI): AOI need to be considered as Interference Filter is angle sensitive, 0° AOI by default, other AOI e.g. 30/45° need to be specified.
- Physical and environmental requirement: Substrate type, dimensions and thickness, surface quality, and environmental durability.
