Very Narrow Band Interference Filters
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 25 April 2016
Extract
In solar physics a need exists for filters which have very narrow passbands, ~0.01 nm or less. While Lyot-Öhman birefringent filters have been used particularly for investigations at the Hα line, the limited availability of the raw materials, especially calcite, have usually restricted these filters to passbands of ~ 0.025 nm or more. A possible alternative type of filter consists of a number of Fabry-Perot interferometers mounted one behind the other.
