Scientific paper

In the final round of thermal vacuum tests for the WFC3, we performed a check of red leak in the UVIS filters. These checks demonstrate that the filters in general exhibit the excellent blocking of red light expected from the scans of these filters at the component level. For two of the filters (F336W and F343N) we were not able to confirm the expected level of blocking at 450 nm and 600 nm, due to the limitations of the optical stimulus used for testing, but the upper limits obtained at these wavelengths imply that there is no red leak issue.
