A variable wavelength interference filter includes a stationary substrate and a movable substrate opposed to each other, the stationary substrate includes a stationary reflecting film, a first drive electrode, and a first capacitance detecting electrode, and the movable substrate includes a movable reflecting film arranged to have an inter-reflecting film gap with the stationary substrate, a second drive electrode arranged to have an inter-drive electrode gap with the first drive electrode, and a second capacitance detecting electrode arranged to have an inter-capacitance detecting electrode gap with the first capacitance detecting electrode. The capacitance detecting electrodes detect the capacitance between the electrodes. The gap amount of the inter-reflecting film gap is changed by the drive electrodes. The gap amounts of the inter-reflecting film gap, the inter-drive electrode gap, and the inter-capacitance detecting electrode gap are different from each other. |
