OD 4.0 Notch Filters

TECHSPEC OD 4.0 Notch Filters

×

TECHSPEC® OD 4.0 Notch Filters are low-cost alternatives to Rugate Notch Filters. The filters feature narrow rejection bands of just ±2.5% of the center wavelength while offering greater than 99% reflection of the laser wavelength. These optical filters have a broad transmission range and are hard coated to guarantee performance that will not degrade with time, temperature, or humidity. TECHSPEC® OD 4.0 Notch Filters are mounted in a black anodized ring engraved to ease filter handling, identification, and orientation. OD 6.0 Notch Filters are also available for purchase. 

Note: These filters are optimized for high spectral performance rather than high Laser Induced Damage Thresholds (LIDT). A typical LIDT for these filters is 1 J/cm2 @ 532nm, 10ns. Please contact us if you require a filter with a higher LIDT value.
