Midinfrared photonic modes of a periodically patterned metal-dielectric-metal structure have been investigated theoretically and experimentally. We have observed an anticrossing behavior between cavity modes localized in the double-metal regions and the surface plasmon polariton, signature of a hybridization between the two modes.
