• Reynard Corp. to show CVND filters at SPIE BiOS and SPIE Photonics West 2014

    These circular variable neutral density (CVND) filters are customizable in many ways, including changing the intensity of light from 100% to less than 0.1%.
    Jan. 24, 2014

    Customizing the company’s circular variable neutral density (CVND) filters is a technology that is best used in high quality optical systems to change the intensity of light from 100% to less than 0.1%. As the filter rotates, the beam intensity is modified due to the density variation of a gradient metallic coating around the filter. Used from the UV to the far infrared, density neutrality can be achieved for narrowband to wideband applications. The filters can be made on a variety of substrates including BK-7, fused silica, ZnSe, and Ge. The typical coating material is a nickel variant for room temperature, low-power applications.
