The scattering amplitude from a set of discrete states coupled to a continuum became known as the Fano profile, characteristic for its asymmetric lineshape and originally investigated in the context of photoionization. The generality of the…
Fano resonances are sharp asymmetrical spectral peaks which are now ubiquitous in nanophotonics. The high sensitivity of these resonances to system parameter has been exploited to improve light matter interaction and in applications such as…

Anomalous line shapes of quarkonia are explained naturally as an interference effect of a $c\bar c$ confined closed channel with the surrounding continua, well established in other fields of physics as Fano-resonances. We discuss a quark…
We describe the Fano asymmetry by expanding the transmission amplitude with respect to states with point spectra (discrete eigenstates), including not only bound states but also resonant states with complex eigenvalues. We first introduce a…
Fano manifolds are basic building blocks in geometry - they are, in a precise sense, atomic pieces of shapes. The classification of Fano manifolds is therefore an important problem in geometry, which has been open since the 1930s. One can…
The Fano effect arises from the interference between a continuum of propagating modes and a localised resonance. By using this resonance as one of the mirrors in an optical cavity, a localised mode with a highly asymmetric line shape is…
A strong optical nonlinearity arises when coherent light is scattered by a semiconductor quantumdot (QD) coupled to a nano-photonic waveguide. We exploit the Fano effect in such a waveguide to control the phase of the quantum interference…
An analytical derivation of Fano line-shape asymmetry ratio has been presented here for a general case. It is shown that Fano line-shape becomes less asymmetric as \q is increased and finally becomes completely symmetric in the limiting…
The transmission probability and phase through a few-electron quantum dot are studied within a resonance theory for the strong coupling regime to the conducting leads. We find that the interaction between overlapping resonances leads to…

We present the results of transport measurements in a hybrid system consisting of an arch-shaped quantum point contact (QPC) and a reflector; together, they form an electronic cavity in between them. On tuning the arch-QPC and the…
