We report on a novel platform for the realisation of planar fluid infiltrated waveguide arrays with applications in sensing and nonlinear optical propagation. This platform provides a planar 1-D analogue to 2-D fluid-inflitrated 'holey' photonic crystal fibres. The waveguides were fabricated in SU8 epoxy using a combination of photolithography and dry film lamination. We demonstrate fluid infiltration, waveguiding and temperature sensing in this platform.
