3.What is typical application for 480nm bandpass filters?
A 480nm bandpass filter is an optical device that selectively transmits light centered at 480nm while blocking light at other wavelengths. 480nm bandpass filters find extensive use in fluorescence microscopy and biological optical detection. They effectively isolate target blue-cyan fluorescent signals and suppress stray light. These filters also serve in water quality monitoring, environmental spectral analysis, color measurement equipment, medical optical systems, industrial machine vision, and light source calibration, where they play a key role in precise spectral screening and stable optical signal acquisition.
4.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.
