Abstract

An optical fiber Fabry-Pérot tunable filter is constructed by fixing two microlensed mirror-coated fibers to the opposite ends of a piezoelectric transducer. A tunable filter with a free spectral range of 70 nm, a finesse of 175, an insertion loss of 1.05 dB, and a tuning frequency exceeding 1 kHz has been experimentally demonstrated. The filter is easy to construct at a low cost, and it is anticipated that it will be used in fiber-optic sensing systems, spectrometers, and tunable optical fiber lasers.
