  • Stock Linear Variable Filter for 0.9-1.7 µm (2%) “on the shelf” for next day shipping, 15 mm x 3.5 mm x 0.5mm thick
  • This linear variable filter (LVF) has a narrow band profile (FWHM=2% x Peak Wavelength).
  • The peak wavelength changes continuously from one side to the other across the range, see right in Fig 1.
  • All of our filters exhibit high angular tolerance, extremely low change with temperature and very high resistance to thermal shock.
