Interference filters

Interference filters

They are composed of transparent glass or quartz substrate on which multiple thin layers of dielectric material, sometimes separated by spacer layers .

Permit great selectivity.

Dichroics

Dichroics

They used to direct light in different spectral region to different detectors.

They are interference filters , long pass or short pass.

"dichroic" Di- is Greek for two, and -chroic is Greek for color - from Greek dikhroos, bicolored

Slide 15

Transmission determination

Transmission determination

Constructive and destructive interference occurs between reflections from various layers

Transmission determined by :

thickness of the dielectric layers

number of these layers

angle of incidence light on the filters

Slide 16

Absorptive filters

Absorptive filters

Such as coloured glass filters which absorb unwanted light.

Consist of dye molecules uniformly suspended in glass or plastic.

Remove much more of the unwanted light than do the interference filters

Will often fluoresce (not good!)

Slide 17

Filters transmission

Filters transmission

Bandpass filters: characterized by there

T max and (the Full Width at Half Maximum) FWHM

Notch filters are band pass filters in the upside down position

Long pass and Short pass filters: characterized by their T max and cuton, cutoff wavelength.
