Solaris S colour filters

The Solaris™ S range is a virtually endless range of transparent coloured optical filters used in a variety of applications for contrast enhancement, colour conversion or colour correction in displays using for example VFD, LCD or LED technology.

Properties of Solaris S Colour Filters

Solaris™ S optical filters are used to control or manipulate the light emitting from a display. This is done by adapting the filter’s transmittance to the wavelength of the light emitted from the display.

An important distinction is made between broad-band and selective filters. Broad-band filters are basically gray-shaded filters which allow for the transmittance of all light (colours). They are therefore often used in applications in which contrast enhancement is required without loss of the full colour spectrum. Selective filters are designed to only transmit specific wavelengths of the light, i.e. specific colours. Selective filters are especially suitable for applications requiring colour correction and contrast enhancement of monochrome displays.
