Neutral Density Filters

Neutral Density Color Glass Filters are made from Schott NG Glass Filters. These filters:

  • Can be AR coated to prevent back reflections
  • Can handle higher input energy, especially if actively cooled
  • Have Very accurate ND values, made possible by controlling the thickness of the color glass
