Delta Optical Thin Film explains how it balanced sustainability, optical production layout and new technologies at its new industry-leading site
Gemma Church explains how optical filters from Delta Optical Thin Film help PoC diagnostic tests. As the world continues to fight the Covid-19 pandemic, it’s more important than ever to deliver the right medical diagnosis, at the right time. This is where point-of-care (PoC) instruments help, bringing diagnostic tests to the patient.
Optical filters are a key component of any optical system. As the market for advanced imaging and diagnostic technologies continues to increase, there is a growing requirement for high-quality optical filters that are designed and manufactured to adhere to specific customer requirements. Delta Optical Thin Film is developing optical filters for next-generation Point-of-Care (PoC) devices.
Following strong growth, Delta Optical Thin Film is moving into its new purpose-built facilities in DTU Science Park in Hørsholm, Denmark
This whitepaper will discuss the rise of continously variable filters in mini-spectrometers. CVFs are able to replace multiple fixed wavelength filters with improved performance.
Delta Optical Thin Film will be showing its range of Circular Variable Filters - interference narrow bandpass filters deposited on circular substrates. Film thickness, and therefore the wavelength of peak transmittance varies linearly and continuously with angular position on the segment. They are ideally suited as monochromators in compact, non-dispersive spectrometers or with supercontinuum lasers, providing medium spectral resolution, or when information is desired at several specific wavelengths in the relevant spectral range.
Delta Optical Thin Film will be at booth 804 and BiOS booth 8804 exhibiting its custom continuously variable bandpass filters (CVBPFs) for mid-size and full-frame CCD/CMOS sensors. These filters offer very high transmission and are fully blocked in the light-sensitive wavelength range of silicon-based detectors. The combination of CVBPFs with silicon detectors enables the design of very compact, robust and affordable hyperspectral imaging detectors that offer several advantages and benefits over conventional approaches.

A new Laser Attenuator has been developed, which utilises an ultra-hard coated, Laser Optical Multilayer Attenuator (LOMA) filter from Delta Optical Thin Film.
The laser attenuator enables computer-controlled attenuation of a monochromatic light source from 1 to 99 per cent within the wavelength region of ~ 550-1,000 nm. It provides the user with safe, repeatable, and real-time control over the attenuation by combining the LOMA filter with a linear drive, controlled electronics, and dedicated software.
Delta Optical Thin Film has launched several LED and laser bandpass filters optimised for specific LED and laser wavelengths. They combine large angular tolerance with high transmission
