Cut-off Linear Variable Filter

The spectral transmittance curve at each position of the cutoff linear variable filter is consistent with that of the conventional cutoff filter, and the switching wavelength of the cutoff gradually changes with the change of the spatial position on the filter. Filter variable rate is available in 22.3nm/mm and 7nm/mm. Customers can choose variable rate and spectrum fan according to their own requirements.

Key Features
  • Materials
    Materials

    Optical glass such as K9, fused silica, sapphire, MgF2, silicon (Si), ZnSe, ZnS, etc. These materials possess high transmittance, low absorption, low scattering, uniform refractive index, and specific dispersion characteristics.

  • Shape
    Shape

    Precisely hemispherical. The machining precision of the center and radius of curvature of the sphere is extremely high.

  • Surface Quality
    Surface Quality

    The surface is precision polished to an optical grade of 10-5 to ensure image quality and reduce scattering and aberrations.

  • Coating
    Coating

    An AR coating is typically applied to the concave surface to maximize the transmittance of specific wavelengths of light (e.g. visible light) and reduce reflection loss.

Typical Application Areas
  • Underwater Photography and Detection:
    Underwater Photography and Detection:
    Observation windows for underwater cameras, ROVs (Remotely Operated Vehicles), and AUVs (Autonomous Underwater Vehicles). The hemispherical design provides a near 180° wide field of view while withstanding water pressure.
