Abstract
An opto-very-large-scale-integrated (opto-VLSI)-based tunable optical filter structure is demonstrated. Filter tunability is achieved by reconfiguring the holographic diffraction grating of an opto-VLSI processor, allowing virtually any type of filter response to be synthesized. A proof-of-concept tunable notch filter with wavelength span of 7 nm is experimentally verified
