460-600 nm nominal rejection-region broadband notch filter (M79508)
M79508 is a broadband notch filter. Its measured curve has a low-transmission region at approximately 472-580 nm, with transmission recovering on either side. Choose it for broad spectral suppression rather than assuming a narrow laser-line stop.
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: 385-453 nm; 608-780 nm. Approximate measured intervals.
- Selected regions at or below 5% transmission: 472-580 nm. Measured sample intervals; confirm the required blocking for your order.
- Peak transmission: Approximately 95.6% at 706 nm. Peak wavelength is not the same as a defined centre wavelength.
- Measured edge at 50% transmission: Approximately 457.8 nm. Interpolated absolute-transmission crossing, checked against the factory summary.
- Measured edge at 50% transmission: Approximately 600.2 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
- Broadband illumination shaping: Consider suppressing the indicated wavelength region while retaining shorter and longer wavelengths. Check that the desired signal lies outside the transition bands.
- Spectral contrast development: Evaluate whether reducing the rejected band improves contrast for a selected source and detector. Compare both remaining transmission regions with detector sensitivity.
- Multi-region optical experiments: Consider retaining light on both sides of the rejection band. Add channel-separation optics if independent measurements are required.
Choosing this filter
- Additional regions reach at least 50% transmission at approximately 381-457 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 M79508
Where does M79508 transmit at least 80% in the measured curve?
The measured regions at or above 80% transmission are 385-453 nm; 608-780 nm. They are measured intervals, not guaranteed passband tolerances. Compare the full curve with the signal wavelengths you need to retain.
Could M79508 pass light outside its main band?
For M79508, additional regions reach at least 50% transmission at approximately 381-457 nm. If your detector responds there, include that light in the background assessment or discuss an additional blocking requirement.
