Abstract :
In this paper, a tunable nano-filter with simple tuning mechanism and wide range of wavelength selectivity is proposed. The structure of the filter is based on MIM waveguide configuration. The filter response can be controlled electrically in efficient and accurate manner. The applications and advantages of this novel tunable filter structure are discussed in details.
