Short Wave Pass Infrared Filters
Short Wave Pass (SWP) Infrared Filters are designed to achieve efficient separation of adjacent spectral bands in the infrared spectrum. The cut-off edge of the filter may be located between 0.85µm and 13µm. Example of SWP IR Filter Spectral Transmission Graph Umicore has a wide range of off-the-shelf IR Filter...
Long Wave Pass Infrared Filters
Long Wave Pass (LWP) Infrared Filters are designed to achieve efficient separation of adjacent spectral bands in the infrared spectrum. The cut-on edge of the filter may be located between 0.85µm and 11µm. Example of LWP IR Filter Spectral Transmission Graph Umicore has a wide range of off-the-shelf IR Filter designs...
