摘要：

A broad range tunable optical filter using a torsional micromechanical structure is presented. The device has a continuous tuning range over 100 rim, from 1500 to 1600 urn, and the structure eliminates the potential catastrophic discharge problem associated with electrostatic micromachines. Transmission of 2.5-Gb/s directly modulated 1550-nm vertical-cavity surface-emitting laser through the tunable filter shows no power penalty.
