540 nm nominal-edge shortpass filter (B0611)

B0611 is a shortpass filter. The main high-transmission region is approximately 381-533 nm. Consider it when you need to pass the shorter wavelengths used by your light source or detector. Check the longer-wavelength response as well as the main cut-off.

Optical performance

Measured wavelength range: 380-780 nm. Performance outside this measured interval is not established by this curve.
Selected regions at or above 80% transmission: 381-533 nm; 778-780 nm. Approximate measured intervals.
Selected regions at or below 5% transmission: 561-749 nm. Measured sample intervals; confirm the required blocking for your order.
Peak transmission: Approximately 95% at 510 nm. Peak wavelength is not the same as a defined centre wavelength.
Measured edge at 50% transmission: Approximately 540.3 nm. Interpolated absolute-transmission crossing, checked against the factory summary.
Customization: We can customize stock and sample-book designs. Tell us the wavelength response, size and operating conditions you need.

These values come from the measured samples and help you choose a starting design. We will agree the final specification for your order. Custom versions have their own specifications and measured curves.

Applications to consider

Short-wavelength illuminated inspection: Consider illumination within 381-533 nm when longer-wavelength background interferes with the measurement. Check any secondary transmission against the detector response.
Illumination-band shaping: Evaluate retaining the shorter-wavelength part of a broadband source. Add a lower spectral limit if unwanted UV or shorter wavelengths must also be removed.
Fluorescence source conditioning: Consider trimming longer-wavelength output from an excitation source. Confirm signal transmission and rejection at the actual wavelengths rather than assuming a complete fluorescence filter set.

Choosing this filter

Additional regions reach at least 50% transmission at approximately 773-780 nm. Include these in the detector and blocking assessment.
Check the full wavelength range of your light source, the wavelengths your detector responds to, and how much unwanted light you need to block. Use the full curve when choosing a filter; the product code and peak do not tell the whole story.
Tell us the angle at which light reaches the filter and whether the beam is parallel or converging. For demanding rejection or high-power use, confirm the required blocking and power-handling specifications.

Custom options

Start with this stock or sample-book design, then tell us what you need to change. We can discuss the wavelength bands, transmission, blocking, angle, glass material, size and operating conditions with you, and agree a specification for your custom filter.

Questions about B0611

Where does B0611 transmit at least 80% in the measured curve?

The measured regions at or above 80% transmission are 381-533 nm; 778-780 nm. They are measured intervals, not guaranteed passband tolerances. Compare the full curve with the signal wavelengths you need to retain.

Could B0611 pass light outside its main band?

For B0611, additional regions reach at least 50% transmission at approximately 773-780 nm. If your detector responds there, include that light in the background assessment or discuss an additional blocking requirement.
