1. A tunable optical filter comprising:

  • a first mirror structure;

    a second, concave mirror structure;

    a spacer layer separating the first mirror structure and the second mirror structure, the first mirror structure and the second mirror structure defining a resonant optical cavity of the optical filter; and

    an electrostatic cavity across which electric fields are generated to control a separation between the first mirror structure and the second mirror structure to thereby change a length of the optical cavity.
