Emission filter 1 and 2 (EF1 and EF2):
The EF is used to narrow the fluorescence spec-
trum. The bandpass (BP) filter allows the range
within the specified border wavelengths to pass
through. The longpass (LP) filter allows the range
above the specified border wavelength to pass
through. The short pass (KP) filter allows the range
below the specified border wavelength to pass
through. The EFs are positioned in a 90° angle to
the incident beam.
