Hey, this is just a quick question on the quantum efficiency of CCDs. First of all, you are given the quantum efficiency of the CCD and the throughput value of the filter. So do you just multiply the throughput by the original quantum efficiency to obtain the quantum efficiency of the filter/CCD combination??
For example, if you had a quantum efficiency of 80% and a throughput of 50% for a particular wavelength, then the overall quantum efficiency (at that wavelength) would be:
QE = (0.8*0.5)*100 = 40%
Is that right?
Thanks
