When rotating shaft rotated to angle ω=0, the incident angle of light was: i=φ-θ
When rotating shaft rotated to angle ω=180, the incident angle of light was: i=φ+θ
It is thus clear that incident angle has changed 2 θ, average incident angle is φ.
When ω was other angles, angle was in that (φ-θ) is to (change between the φ+θ).
As shown in Figure 3, optical filter is the multilayered interference film structure, and according to interference condition, transmission peak wavelength is proportional to incident cosine of an angle λ ∝ n*cos (i2).
When rotating shaft is rotated, wavelength can λ 0* (n1*cos (φ-θ)/n*cos (φ)) to λ 0* (n2*cos (φ+θ)/n*cos (φ)), between change.Wherein λ 0 is the transmission peak wavelength of optical filter when incident angle is φ.
In general, θ spends between 35 degree 0, and φ spends between 40 degree 0; Incident beam is the Gaussian beam behind directional light or the collimation.
Therefore when rotating shaft was rotated, the filter plate transmission peak wavelength changed thereupon, formed tunable optic filter.
Optical filter 2 is narrow band pass filters, and its incident angle of light is different, and the wavelength that sees through is different;
Incident beam is the Gaussian beam behind directional light or the collimation, and between the 3mm, spend between 40 degree 0 by the angle between itself and the rotating shaft at 60um for beam diameter.
