A tuneable optical filter having a variable wavelength transmittance. The filter comprises a pre-polariser, a post-polariser and a birefringent plate positioned between the pre-polariser and the post-polariser. A twisted nematic liquid crystal cell (TN LCD) is positioned between the pre-polariser and the post-polariser, the TN LCD being controlled, in use, to tune the filter. A quarter wave plate is positioned adjacent the birefringent plate. |
