Photonic crystals are stuctures in which the refractive index varies periodically on the wavelength scale in one, two or three dimensions. Due to interference effects, these structures can forbid light propagation over a large spectral range called "the photonic bandgap". Integrated optics is one of the potential applications of photonic crystals in which the information can be treated as a light signal that propagates through photonic crystal-based devices, such as filters, lasers, waveguides, bends and multiplexers. The photonic crystals structures studied for integrated optics applications consist of periodic arrays of holes etched through classical semiconducteur-based planar waveguides. For any practical application, the optical properties of the fabricated components have to be tuned by external means. In this thesis, we explore a possible approach to photonic crystal tuning : the infiltration of photoactive organic materials in the holes of these photonic structures. First we considered liquid crystals, which exhibit anisotropic optical properties like birefringence due to their long-range orientational order. This latter molecular organization can be modified by external factors, i.e. temperature and electric field. Nematic liquid crystals were infiltrated in the holes of the photonic crystals to tune their properties by changing the temperature and applying an electric field. Moreover, the organization of liquid crystals in the nanometric holes were studied by optical techniques. The demand for all-optical tunable devices in integrated optical circuits led us to consider the possibility of optically tuning the response of photonic crystal structures. For this purpose, we used photo-induced phase transitions of a liquid crystal blend doped with azobenzene photochromic molecules. Since the phase transitions in these mixtures depend on the concentration of the photochromic compound and on the temperature, we studied in detail the phase diagram of the blend. The last part of this thesis focused on one of the most innovative aspects in the domain of photonic crystal tuning : selective infiltration to locally modify the optical properties of the photonic structures. We used the photopolymerization of acrylate monomers by ultraviolet laser irradiation. Finally, with three clear examples, this thesis shows that organic photoactive materials are well-adapted to be combined with photonic crystals. We demonstrated that the obtained hybrid structures are very promising for integrated optics applications.
