Energy matching biochemical filter

Energy Matching Biochemical Filters | High-Accuracy Optics

Energy Matching Biochemical Filters from Shape Optics Technologies Pte Ltd are engineered for high-accuracy biochemical and spectroscopic measurements. By precisely matching the spectral energy of the illumination source, detection channel, and sensor, these filters deliver excellent measurement accuracy, repeatability, and consistency.

This energy-matching approach is critical in complex biochemical assays where overlapping spectra can introduce errors. SOT’s advanced multilayer dielectric coatings ensure high cut-off depth, minimal inter-channel interference, and stable performance, making these filters ideal for biochemical analyzers, enzyme assays, and clinical diagnostic instruments.

 

Key Features

  • Advanced Coating Technology – High signal-to-noise ratio with sharp spectral edges for accurate absorbance detection
  • Optimized Energy Matching – Precisely matches the wavelength energy of light source, channel, and detector for superior linearity
  • High Cut-off Depth – Steep transitions minimize crosstalk and stray light interference
  • Customizable Designs – CWL, FWHM, optical density, size, and coating stack tailored to your system
  • Durable & Reliable – Long-term stability for demanding biochemical and clinical environments

 

Spectral Performance

Standard and custom spectrum transmission curves are available. Filters can be engineered to match exact system wavelengths and optical density requirements, ensuring optimal compatibility with your analyzer or detection platform.
