We investigate the suitability of photonic crystal nanobeam cavities for interconnect applications. Owing to their small footprint, exactly the same as that of an optical wave-guide, as well as ultrahigh quality factor resonances that they support, nanobeam cavities are attractive candidates for realization of densely integrated on-chip optical networks. We discus tunability of these filters using thermo-optic, electromechanic, and optomechanic effects, and we compare different reconfiguration strategies in terms of tuning hold power, tuning efficiency, and maximum operating frequency.
