Angle Tunable Type Wavelength Tunable Filter Module
Wavelength can be tuned by changing the angle of an oxide dielectric bandpass
filter. This module rotates oxide dielectric bandpass filters with a micrometer tocontrol wavelength.

Features- Capability to tune wavelength of multicavity bandpass filters- Includes a chart of micro
characteristics (refer to the photo)- Exchangeable holder type filters- Rack type filter holder with capability
for common use with cartridge type
