We present the design of a tunable high-Q photonic band gap (PBG) cavity, made from a periodic arrangement of dielectric rods in a woodpile like structure. We know that the axion signal rate di- minishes as we move to higher axion mass searches. High quality factor achieved with this type of cavity will enable higher mass axion search with improved signal sensitivity and faster scanning rate. Quality factor in excess of the axion-Q will enable us to design interesting experiments such as the quantum non-demolition (QND) measurement of itinerant microwave photons using superconducting qubits, and stimulated emis- sion of photons.
