Abstract

An interference filter includes a multi-coated interference filter layer of dielectric substances deposited on a transparent base plate and extinction members applied to side surfaces of the transparent base plate. A multi-color interference filter has at least two such interference filters having different spectral characteristics closely connected to each other through the extinction members and cemented to a transparent base plate which is formed with a multi-coated anti-reflection layer deposited on one surface opposite to a surface to which the interference filter is cemented.
