Recent advances in birefringent filtersIn the past several years, important developments have been made in the construction and theory of birefringent filters. Tunable filters that operate from 4500 to 7000 A with full widths at half maximum of 0.05 A and maximum transmissions of almost 20 percent have been constructed. Inexpensive large-aperture (at least 15 cm) achromatic waveplates have been fabricated which allow full use of resolution-solid angle products that are 100 times that of Fabry-Perots and 10,000 times that of grating systems.
