The 500FS80-12.5 is a Bandpass Filter with a center wavelength of 500nm and a full width at half maximum (FWHM) of 80nm. This filter is sourced from Andover Corporation, a renowned vendor in the optical industry. The filter is designed with a circular base shape, making it compatible with a wide range of optical systems.
The filter has a diameter of 12.5mm and a thickness of 5.9mm, providing sufficient structural integrity for most applications. It is made from UVFS MAL-1965, a material specifically designed for optical applications, ensuring high-quality performance.
The 500FS80-12.5 features a cut-on wavelength of 460nm and a cut-off wavelength of 540nm. This means it allows light within the 460-540nm range to pass through while blocking other wavelengths. The center wavelength of 500nm is where the filter's transmission is at its maximum, making it ideal for applications that require precise wavelength selection.
Both the front and back surfaces of the filter are coated with And 500FS80, a coating specifically designed for this filter. This coating enhances the filter's performance and durability, ensuring reliable operation in various environments.
The filter's shape is that of a thin lens, making it suitable for use in optical systems where minimal thickness is required. The catalog number for this filter is 500FS80-12.5, and it is currently in stock, according to Andover Corporation's website.
