Where to Buy Optical Filters
Optical filters mostly provide wavelength-dependent attenuation of light. They can be absorbing glass filters, interference filters, Fabry–Perot filters, Lyot filters or based on other designs. The applications are manifold, including eye protection against laser radiation, gain equalization of telecom fiber amplifiers, solar-blind photodetectors and spectral analysis.
