CLAREX Near-Infrared Cut Filters (NIR-Cut)
Transmits visible wavelengths and cuts near infrared (NIR-Cut).
CLAREX near-infrared cut (NIR-Cut) filters have been designed specifically for NVIS applications where it is important to minimize the amount of NIR light emission from a display. They also block/reflect heat in the NIR range and could serve as Hot Mirrors.
Benefits:
- Transmits visible wavelengths and cuts near infrared (NIR)
- Standard HPP600 coating design shown. Coating design can be modified to meet specific requirements
- Substrate is hard-coated polycarbonate or cast acrylic, with IR-cut coatings both front and back
- The standard HPP600 NIR-cut coating design imparts a blue/green tint in transmitted light, and reflections have a reddish tint (see video below)
Common Applications
- NVIS compatible displays
- Instrumentation
- Avionics displays
- Backlighting
- Cockpit lighting
