Abstract
We demonstrate an electrically tunable Sagnac filter based on a photonic bandgap fiber that is realized by infusing liquid crystal into a solid-core air-hole photonic crystal fiber. The filter enables an electrical tuning with a range of about for one single interference minimum in the transmission bandgap from wavelength. The tuning efficiency is averaged to .
