Astronomik OIII 12nm CCD SC Rear Cell Filter (2" / 24TPI) (SKU: 10215050 / 8h00bm) is a narrowband emission filter designed for imaging nebulae that emit light in the oxygen [OIII] lines. It records radiation at wavelengths of 496 nm and 501 nm, significantly increasing contrast between the object and the sky background. The SC Rear Cell version is designed for installation in the rear thread of Schmidt-Cassegrain telescopes (2" / 24TPI).
With its 12 nm bandwidth, the filter effectively blocks unwanted light at other wavelengths from ultraviolet to infrared. It suppresses emission lines from sodium and mercury vapor lamps, natural airglow and a large portion of moonlight, allowing high-contrast imaging both under dark skies and in heavily light-polluted environments.
The OIII filter allows imaging of fine structures in planetary nebulae, star-forming regions and supernova remnants. Combined with H-alpha and SII filters it enables the creation of emission-line images in the HSO palette.
