We introduce two tractable analytical models to describe dynamic effects at resonant light scattering by subwavelength particles. One of them is based on generalization of the temporal coupled-mode theory, and the other employs the normal…
Single particle resonances in quantum wires are generally Fano resonances. In case of Fano resonances, the scattering phase shift in some channels show sharp phase drops and that in the other channels do not. Phase shift in a particular…
Single metallic nanorods acting as half-wave antennas in the optical range exhibit an asymmetric, multi-resonant scattering spectrum that strongly depends on both their length and dielectric properties. Here we show that such spectral…
Raman spectra obtained by the inelastic scattering of light by crystalline solids contain contributions from first-order vibrational processes (e.g. the emission or absorption of one phonon, a quantum of vibration) as well as higher-order…
The review is devoted to a discussion of new (and often unexpected) aspects of the old problem of elastic light scattering by small metal particles, whose size is comparable to or smaller than the thickness of the skin layer. The main focus…
In the standard Breit-Wigner approach to scattering the phase shift is to have a form $\tan\delta_{\rm BW} =\Gamma_1/(E_1-E)$ at a real energy resonance. This leads to complex energy poles in the scattering amplitude at $E_{\rm…
We address the two-dimensional band-structure of graphene above the vacuum level in the context of discrete states immersed in the three-dimensional continuum. Scattering resonances are discovered that originate from the coupling of the…
When wave scattering systems are subject to certain symmetries, resonant states may decouple from the far-field continuum; they remain localized to the structure and cannot be excited by incident waves from the far field. In this work, we…
The Fano resonance is a widespread wave scattering phenomenon associated with a peculiar asymmetric and ultra-sharp line shape, which has found applications in a large variety of prominent optical devices. While its substantial sensitivity…
We consider the light scattering from a pair of point-like electrical dipoles. Whenever the polarizability of each dipole violates the optical theorem, the response of the pair (both in far-field and near-field) exhibits exact resonances as…
