We describe a nitrogen laser pumped dye laser tuned by a dielectric multilayer filter. The construction is simple and the adjustment of tuning is easy. It is found that the tuning is possible over a range of 10 nm from 445 to 455 nm in alcoholic solutions of coumarin 1, that the linewidth (0.8 nm) is independent of the filter tilt angle, and that the output intensity is remarkably flat over this tuning range.
