Lyot filter

A Lyot filter (polarization-interference monochromator, birefringent filter),: 106 named for its inventor and French astronomer Bernard Lyot, is a type of optical filter that uses birefringence to produce a narrow passband of transmitted wavelengths.: 177 Lyot filters are used in astronomy, particularly for solar astronomy, lasers, biomedical photonics…
