    Summary

    We developed a novel tunable filter for multispectral imaging. This high-performance filter offers narrow bandwidths and high throughput, making it ideal for biomedical and industrial applications.

    Area of Science:

    • Optics and Photonics
    • Materials Science

    Background:

    • Multispectral tunable filters are crucial for advanced imaging in biomedical and industrial fields.
    • Existing filters often face limitations in performance, dynamic range, or spectral resolution.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To introduce a new narrowband multispectral tunable filter with enhanced performance characteristics.
    • To demonstrate a filter design that achieves high throughput across a wide dynamic range.

    Main Methods:

    • The filter combines a wideband liquid crystal tunable filter with a photonic crystal-based narrowband spectral filter.
    • The design incorporates two stacks of photonic crystals with a central cavity layer.
    • The system was engineered to tune across multiple spectral bands.
