Abstract
Although dye filters can accept light in solid angles. unlimited by their wavelength resolution, R,only small values of R can be attained. The highest for a dye filter, detector cut-off, combination in the visible is around 50. This implies that band widths of only > 100 Å at 5000 Å can be achieved.
