Infrared (IR) cut-off filters are used with color CCD or CMOS imagers to produce color images.  An IR cut-off filter blocks the transmission of the infrared while passing the visible.  This can be done with two optical techniques: absorption or reflection.  Absorptive filters are made with special optical glass that absorbs near infrared radiation.  Reflection type filters are short-pass interference filters that reflect infrared light with high efficiency.  We offer two types of absorptive filters: IRC20 and IRC21 and two types of reflective IR filters: IRC30 and IRC40.  The standard IRC30 filter offers cut-off wavelength at 640nm (+/-10nm), and it blocks all wavelength above this up to about 1100nm ( the limit of silicon response). The IRC40 is a new type of reflective filter suitable for security cameras.  It allows both visible and infrared LED light to pass through.  This allows the camera to see a color image during day light and a monochrome image at night time with infrared LED illumination.  IRC20 type is recommended for CCD imagers while the other types are more suited for CMOS imagers. The standard sizes are listed below.  Other sizes can be custom ordered.
