ND (Neutral Density) filters include absorptive and reflective filters, which are used in attenuating lasers and other optical signals. Absorptive filters minimize back reflections, which can be reduced further by adding an antireflection coating to the filter. Reflective filters are available with either a BK7 or UV Fused Silica substrate.
Absorptive Neutral Density (ND) Filters
An absorptive neutral density filter (ND Filter) is an optical element that uniformly reduces the intensity of light by absorbing light of a specific wavelength. It does not significantly change the color of light (i.e., remains “neutral”) and is widely used in photography, laser systems, spectral analysis, and other applications.
