EKSMA Optics has introduced OD 6.0 notch filters for specific laser wavelengths in the range from 488 nm to 561 nm. Other filter choices are: neutral density reflective type filters designed to operate in the 400–2000 nm range, neutral density absorption type filters designed to operate at VIS wavelengths (450–650 nm) and Schott color glass filters.

ICC currently has six different coating machines, including one for diamond-like carbon (DLC) and two for broadband anti-reflection coatings. We mainly produce infrared antireflection coatings, infrared filters, and diamond-like carbon coatings, providing customers with various coating services and products.

Our DCL coatings are made with advanced technology to meet US military standards and reach excellent surface finish.

Shanghai Optics manufactures a wide range of custom optical filters for engineering, scientific, and photographic applications.

LEUKOS offers the widely tunable filter BEBOP. Combine this with our supercontinuum source Rock to obtain a broadband tunable light source.

The BEBOP can be tuned from 350 nm to 850 nm with a bandwidth between 7 nm and 100 nm. It reaches a transmittance of up to 90% and a blocking OD of >4. You can have a free-space output beam or a fiber-coupled output, and there is an additional infrared output.

World leader in Fiber Bragg grating and Fabry Perot filters. Product portfolio includes athermal Fabry–Perot etalons (TWR30) and athermal FBGs (TWR50), as well as tunable FBGs (T10-T980) and tunable Fabry–Perot filters (TFP10-TFP50).

UltraFast Innovations offers spectral filters for ultrashort pulse applications – for example, for preserving the pulse duration of reflected or transmitted pulses.

By using such spectral filters, researchers from Prof. Krausz’s group were able to build a so-called wave synthesizer. We were able to split or combine radiation from 250 to 1100 nm in four channels: 250–290, 290–350, 350–500, and 500–1100 nm. The phases of reflection and transmission are controlled. This allows one to precisely combine radiation from four channels, both spatially and in time, resulting in the generation of sub-optical-cycle pulses. Based on that technology, we also offer the first commercial light field synthesizer.

Laserton has various types of optical filters, including color class filters, birefringent filters, neutral density filters (absorptive or reflective, also versions with variable transmission) and bandpass interference filters.

Artifex Engineering offers custom absorption filters and dieletric filters in almost any design. Bandpass, long pass, short pass or ND filters can be tailored to your wavelength range. The filters can be cut to any shape. Black anodized aluminium rings may be provided for ease of mounting. Visit our product page for more information. We look forward to your inquiry.

Optometrics, a Dynasil company, designs and manufactures long wavepass filters from 500 nm to 1500 nm in increments of 50 nm. These long wavepass filters are mounted in a black anodized aluminium ring. The cut-on wavelengths can be fine tuned by changing the angle of incidence. Optometrics also has short wavepass filters from 450 nm to 1000 nm in increments of 50 nm and otherwise similar characteristics. These filter types can also be used in combination for custom bandpass filtering.

EMF, also a Dynasil company, manufactures a custom line of Optivex™ dichroic filters that block 99% of harmful UV radiation while transmitting high-quality visible light with virtually no distortion. Optivex™ has been the product of choice for over 25 years, and its name is synonymous with absolute protection.
