Avian Technologies offers a wide variety of materials on both a standard and custom
basis. Standard products include:
Neutral Density Filter Sets
Neutral density filters are useful in the calibration of spectrophotrometric, photometric,
or radiometric systems. Calibrated filters are used to assess the dynamic range of detectors
and optical systems. Our standard sets are available as neutral density glass (best used in
the visible range only) and as metal (Inconel) on optical glass (Vis-NIR range) or fused silica
(UV-Vis range), in a variety of sizes. All calibrations are traceable to NRC/NIST.
We age our filters in an oxidizing atmosphere to aid in long term stability.

This set of transmittance standards is a convenient way of checking the performance of
any spectrophotometer that accepts standard 10 mm cuvettes. The four neutral density filters
allow then user to check the photometric linearity of detector response. The standards are
Inconel on glass, canted so to eliminate inter-reflection error. The wavelength calibration
standard assures that the spectrophotometer's wavelength accuracy is within specifications.
The set is housed in a wooden box and is available with two different calibrations. Both
photometric and wavelength calibrations are traceable to NIST or NRC.

Transmittance Standards — Mid-Infrared
The National Physical Laboratory (UK), The National Research Council Canada,
and NIST have described a transfer standard for mid-infrared transmittance. This standard is
a Schott neutral density glass that is calibrated for transmittance at seven points in the
mid-IR between 4000 cm -1 and 2000 cm -1.
Avian Technologies MIR transmittance standard includes the filter, a standard filter
holder that fits all dispersive and Fourier transform infra red spectrometers and calibration
(traceable to NRC) at all seven points, along with a transmittance curve. Instructions on the
use of the standard are provided.

Rare earth oxide glass filters are for calibration of spectrophotometers in the UV-Vis-NIR
range. Avian Technologies currently offers two different filters, holmium oxide and didymium
oxide glasses. Holmium oxide filters have useful peaks in the UV-Vis- and near-IR. Didymium
oxide- a mixture of praseodymium and neodymium oxides- is more traditionally used for its
strong peaks in the visible, although there are also useable peaks in the NIR.
All filters come with calibration traceable to the National Research
Council, Canada.

Color filter sets are useful for checking calibration of spectrophotometers
and spectroradiometers in the color range (360-830 nm). Filters
are colored glass, not thin films, so they are rather broadband
rather than narrow band cut-off filters. Calibration is done on
a narrow bandpass high resolution UV-Vis-NIR spectrophotometer
with calibrations traceable to the National Research Council Canada.
Filters are available in 2" square size.
