“Your holographic notch filters are excellent! We put them into our Raman system and now have a huge improvement in the cutoff edge for the Raman shift. We will recommend your filters to all of our colleagues.”
-Purdue University
Notch filters are intended for suppression of powerful laser beams in research experiments such as Raman Laser Spectroscopy and other applications. They can also be used for eye protection and prevention of other damage caused by laser radiation.
We use a proprietary di-chromated gelatin process that ensures greater suppression, better edgewidths and longer environmental stability. We also guarantee a standard angle of incidence tolerance of less than 1 degree, unlike other suppliers. Custom designs are always welcome, from different design wavelengths to odd angles of incidence. See our pricing below for the best value in the industry.
