Dichroic Plate Beamsplitters are used to separate or combine two different wavelength beams. They can be called Long Wave Pass or Short Wave Pass Filters (Combiner). When the transmittance for a longer wavelength range is maximized, it is called a "Long Wave Pass". The "Short Wave Pass" is when the transmittance for the shorter wavelength range is maximized. Dichroic Plate Beamsplitters are frequently used at (near) normal or 45° incidence. The region of high reflectivity or low transmission of a dichroic beamsplitter is similar to that of a mirror. The transmittance for a longer wavelength range is always higher than that for a shorter wavelength range. So it is strongly recommended to design the optical setup to use the Long Wave Pass for the applications where the light throughput is critical.
