  • Abstract
    We propose and experimentally demonstrate a new approach to the design of Photonic Crystal cavities. Rather than simply maximizing the design Q-factor, we take the effects of disorder into account, and develop a design that provides superior Q factors in the presence of disorder relative to existing designs.
