IR cut filters are primarily categorized into two types: absorptive and reflective. Absorptive IR cut filters use special coated optical glass to absorb light within specific wavelengths. Reflective IR cut filters, on the other hand, utilize short-wave interference filters to reflect infrared light away.Absorptive IR cut filters have the advantage of being less sensitive to the angle of incidence, allowing for a wide bandwidth design with minimal reflection of infrared light. However, they have a less steep cutoff characteristic and may exhibit changes in their properties due to environmental conditions. Reflective IR cut filters have a very steep cutoff characteristic and can have an arbitrary set cutoff wavelength, but they are dependent on the angle of incidence and may reflect infrared light back into the optical system
