This paper is concerned with wave propagation inside a cavity with a tunable boundary condition. It is a follow-up of [Asympt. Anal. (2019), to appear]. Cavities, because they trap waves for long times due to their reflecting walls, are used in a vast number of scientific domains. Indeed, in these closed media and due to interferences, the free space continuum of solutions becomes a discrete set of stationary eigenmodes. These enhanced stationary fields are commonly used in fundamental physics to increase wave-matter interactions. The eigenmodes and associated eigenfrequencies of a cavity are imposed by its geometrical properties through the boundary conditions. In this paper, we show the effect of a small change of boundary condition on the Green’s function of the cavity. This is achieved through the use of a tunable reflecting metasurface. The boundary condition can be switched from Dirichlet to Neumann at some specific resonant frequencies.
