This paper presents measured data on mid-infrared filters using conducting elements based on a simple first-order design philosophy. To the best of our knowledge, the filter center frequencies are at least a factor of 10 higher than any previously reported. The use of conducting elements adds an additional degree of freedom, which may be exploited to obtain filter characteristics superior to simple multilayer dielectric filters.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
