Abstract
An optical filter device includes: a Fabry-Perot interference filter that includes: a first structural body having first and second surfaces; a second structural body having a third surface; a first mirror portion provided to the first structural body; a second mirror portion provided to the second structural body so as to face the first mirror portion via an air gap; a first driving electrode provided to the first structural body; a second driving electrode provided to the second structural body; first and third terminals electrically connected to the first driving electrode; and a second terminal electrically connected to the second driving electrode. A distance between the first driving electrode and the air gap is shorter than a distance between the second surface and the air gap. A resistance measurement unit is electrically connected to the first and third terminals and measures a resistance value of the first driving electrode.
