Abstract
An optical filter apparatus transmits less than 5% of light within a notch spectral range about a central line wavelength with a notch bandwidth, and transmits more than 90% of light within a transmission spectral range that extends over an adjacent pass band of longer and shorter wavelengths and excludes the notch. The apparatus has a first thin film interference filter and a second thin film interference filter in the path of incident light reflected from the first filter. The first and second thin film interference filters are each treated to transmit light of the notch spectral range and reflect light of the transmission spectral range and each have thin film layers formed on a substrate, including first layers having a first refractive index, and second layers having a higher second refractive index. The notch bandwidth at full width half transmission is less than 5% of the central line wavelength.
