Everything about Interference filter
Wavelength-selective optical filter
An interference filter, dichroic filter, or thin-film filter is an optical filter that reflects some wavelengths (colors) of light and transmits others, with almost no absorption for all wavelengths of interest. An interference filter may be high-pass, low-pass, bandpass, or band-rejection. They are used in scientific applications, as well as in architectural and theatrical lighting. Wikipedia →

📖 Definitions
Noun An optical filter in which the wavelengths that are not transmitted are removed by interference rather than by absorption or scattering.
