    Area of Science:

    • Photonics and Optical Engineering
    • Materials Science
    • Electrochemistry

    Background:

    • Tunable optical filters are essential components in various optical systems.
    • Existing tunable filters often involve mechanical movement or complex fabrication processes.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To develop a novel, electronically tunable Fabry-Pérot (FP) optical filter utilizing an ionic liquid solution.
    • To investigate the performance of different ionic liquid electrolytes for filter tuning.

    Main Methods:

    • A unique FP tunable filter design integrating a capacitor region with an FP cavity was fabricated.
    • Ionic liquid electrolytes were employed, with 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium hexafluorophosphate (BMIM-PF6) selected for optimal performance.
    • Electrical bias voltage was applied to modulate ion concentration and refractive index within the FP cavity.

    Main Results:

    • The BMIM-PF6 based filter demonstrated low insertion loss (3.2 dB) and high side mode suppression ratio (23 dB).
    • High stability was achieved with a drift of less than 0.2 nm.
    • A wavelength tuning efficiency of 0.17 nm/V was obtained over a 0-17 V range, resulting in a 3 nm tunable range.

    Conclusions:

    • The ionic liquid-based FP tunable filter offers a low bias voltage, mechanically stable, and easily fabricated alternative.
    • Potential applications include spectral analyzers and lab-on-a-chip biosensing systems due to its seamless integration with microfluidics.
