Abstract
A hybrid filter having an inherently planar interference stack adhered to a nonplanar diffractive grating. The filter can have a planarization layer between the stack and grating. The hybrid filter has a spectral light transmittance value that is at least equal to or greater than the transmittance value of the least transmissive filter component. The filter also has a spectral bandwidth that is narrower than the spectral bandwidth of either filter component.
