Color glass filters operate through absorption rather than the application of coatings. Many types of color glass filters are available including bandpass, shortpass, longpass, neutral density, heat absorbing, and multiband filters.
Quickly get pricing for custom-sized glass filters using Edmund Optics’ Colored Filter Glass Tool. Whether prototyping or sourcing for production, this tool lets you specify dimensions, quantity, and material to receive pricing feedback. Choose from a wide selection of SCHOTT filter glass types ideal for applications that isolate specific wavelengths, such as imaging, microscopy, spectroscopy, and more. This tool streamlines the quoting and sourcing of custom glass filter solutions for your application needs.
