Effects of coherence length on optical interference filter
I have an optical interference filter that is used to block (reflect) solar light heat between 800nm and 1100nm. That filter is made by using 200 layers of quarter wave high and low index coatings on plastic film. The total thickness of the coating is 25 micrometers or even 50 micrometers. I... -
