Abstract
We demonstrate reconfigurable microfluidic photonic crystal double-heterostructure cavities by local fluid infiltration of select air holes. Properties of the microfluidic cavities are experimentally studied by evanescent coupling and analyzed by numerical simulations. © 2008 Optical Society of America.
