Optical Filters: Pioneering Discoveries From Earth To Space

Optical filters enhance light manipulation, enabling breakthroughs in exoplanet research, celestial imaging, and atmospheric studies, driving advancements in various fields.

SPOTLIGHT ON OPTICAL COATINGS & FILTERS

Why Flexibility Is Important In Optics Material Selection

Dan Bukaty Jr., President of Precision Glass & Optics discusses why a flexible approach to material selection in the manufacturing process is important to help protect optics manufacturing lead times against material shortages.

Surface Quality Standards For Optical Filters

Surface quality standards establish acceptable flaws on optical components that affect performance. Proper specification of these standards is crucial to achieving performance balance.

More Signal, Less Background: Improving Signal To Noise Ratio

The path to improving signal-to-noise ratio - the ratio of the power of signal (desired input) to the power of background noise (undesired input) - is to reduce the power of the noise – less background.

Optical Bandpass Filter Fundamentals

Bandpass filters offer precise control over transmitted light bands and rejection of unwanted radiation, with types and features playing crucial roles in their application and performance optimization.
