Abstract

The paper presents the conception of narrow-band interference filters with variable half-width at normal incidence. Such filters are a combination of a birefringence layers and dielectric multilayers. These interference filters need linear polarized radiation. The effective optical thickness of separating layer changes value when the filter is rotated at normal incidence. These filters may be useful as a switching element, in detecting and telecommunication systems.
