Optical Filters: Application and Design Considerations
Tue, Apr 23, 2024 1:00 PM - 2:00 PM EDT
Optical filters can discretely transmit or reject specific wavelengths or ranges of wavelengths of light. Utilizing this capability in photonics-based instruments creates the need for a better understanding of optical filter design considerations and how specifications influence performance and cost. Craig Hanson of MKS/Newport discusses the fundamental principles of optical coatings and filter types and explains the significance of filter parameters and the benefits of design review. He also explores accessory options and subsystem integration. Next Hanson unveils MKS’s unique manufacturing processes and capabilities for custom optical filters from prototype to high-volume production. Finally, this presentation concludes with an open Q&A, for which Hanson is joined by Mark Roberts, principal thin-film engineer at Newport. Presented by MKS Newport.
