Fluorescence Optical Filter Guide

Newport offers two series of fluorescence filter sets for many of the most popular fluorophores.

ODiate® High Performance Fluorescence Filters & Filter Sets

ODiate Fluorescent Filters and Filter Sets utilize a dense sputtering process to meet the highest demands for fluorescence and microscopy applications including exceptionally high passband transmission ≥ 96% avg, maximized out-of-band blocking over the corresponding emission passband verified as ≥ OD8 avg, extremely steep slopes, and spectral specifications illuminating fluorescence chemistries to provide maximum image brightness.  Discover how ODiate excitation filters can differentiate the performance of your life and health science applications, medical instrumentation, and chemical or material analyses.

Stabilife® Standard Fluorescence Filters & Filter Sets

Our standard set, the HPF™ series, Hybrid Plasma Filters, employs Newport's Stabilife® coating technology which provides excellent spectral performance, spectral stability, and physical durability. These fluorescence filters and filter sets provide cost effective solutions ideal for key instruments and markets for DNA Sequencers, Cytometers, MicroPlate Readers, Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR), and Thermocyclers.

Fluorescence Filter Sets - Fluorophore Reference

Recommended Fluorescence Filter Sets are listed below for each fluorophore. Spectral performance of each filter set can be viewed by clicking on the fluorescence filter set model number. All individual excitation, dichroic, and emission filters included in our filter set offering can be purchased separately.
