摘要 |
The present invention relates to an adjustable interference filter, especially for use in gas detection with infrared light within a chosen range, comprising at least two essentially parallel reflective surfaces separated by a chosen distance defining a cavity delimited by the reflective surfaces between which the light may oscillate, and at least one of said surfaces being semitransparent for transmission of light to or from the cavity. The filter comprises a transparent material with a chosen thickness and having a high refractive index positioned in the cavity, and adjustable separation means for adjusting the cavity length between the reflecting surfaces, so as to obtain a cavity constituted by the transparent, high refractive index material and a an adjustable part.
