We experimentally investigate the microfluidic structures via evanescent probing from a tapered fiber at telecommunications wavelengths. We demonstrate a cavity with quality factor Q = 4,300. The defect-writing technique we present does not require nanometer-scale alterations in lattice geometry and may be undertaken at any time after photonic crystal waveguide fabrication.enDouble-heterostructureMicrofluidicNanocavityPhotonic crystalMicrofluidic photonic crystal nanocavities200810.1117/12.76508941149174907
