Abstract

The principles of the single stage and dual stage liquid crystal Fabry- Perot interferometer (FPI) are discussed. A dual stage liquid crystal FPI which has 11-12 cm^-1 pass band and is electronically tunable is described. The filter is characterized as a component of a light microscope. Its application to Raman microscopy of materials and to fluorescence microscopy of nucleic acid dynamics is demonstrated with examples from the author's laboratory.
