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 to geometrical and environmental changes makes it the cornerstone of efficient sensors, it also renders the practical realization of Fano-based systems extremely challenging. Here, we introduce the concept of topological Fano resonance, whose ultra-sharp asymmetric line shape is guaranteed by design and protected against geometrical imperfections, yet remaining sensitive to external parameters. We report the experimental observation of such resonances in an acoustic system, and demonstrate their inherent robustness to geometrical disorder. Such topologically-protected Fano resonances, which can also be found in microwave, optical and plasmonic systems, open up exciting frontiers for the generation of various reliable wave-based devices including low-threshold lasers, perfect absorbers, ultrafast switches or modulators, and highly accurate interferometers, by circumventing the performance degradations caused by inadvertent fabrication flaws.

When intense light irradiates a quantum system, an ionizing electron recollides with its parent ion within the same light cycle and, during that very brief (few femtosecond) encounter, its kinetic energy sweeps from low to high energy and back. There
fore, recollision offers unprecedented time resolution and it is the foundation on which attosecond science is built. For simple systems, recolliding trajectories are shaped by the strong field acting together with the Coulomb potential and they can be readily calculated and measured. However, for more complex systems, multielectron effects are also important because they dynamically alter the recolliding wave packet trajectories. Here, we theoretically study Fano resonances, one of the most accessible multielectron effects, and we show how multielectron dynamics can be unambiguously isolated when we use in situ measurement. The general class of in situ measurement can provide key information needed for time-dependent ab initio electronic structure theory and will allow us to measure the ultimate time response of matter.
Photonic cavities are valued in current research owing to the multitude of linear and nonlinear effects arising from densely confined light. Cavity designs consisting of low loss dielectric materials can achieve significant light confinement, competi
tive with other schools of cavity design such as plasmonics. However, the basic concepts in all dielectric photonics such as anapole resonances in nanodisks have been primarily studied in high index materials such as WS2 and Si. Without additional measures, low index dielectric nanodisks struggle to achieve similar levels of light confinement. Here, we present fabricable design space for higher confinement in a low index dielectric cavity by incorporating the extensively studied, isolated dielectric nanodisk into broader host structures. In particular, we focus on hexagonal boron nitride (hBN), a novel dielectric 2D material with bright, room temperature single photon emitters and refractive indices of 2.1 and 1.8 in the inplane and out-of-plane directions. Due to hBNs potential as a quantum light source, we characterise our cavities by their achievable Purcell factors at the anapole resonance. The effects of the supporting structures on the cavity resonances include boosts to the Purcell factor by as much as three-fold to a maximum observed factor of 6.2.
Decay of bound states due to coupling with free particle states is a general phenomenon occurring at energy scales from MeV in nuclear physics to peV in ultracold atomic gases. Such a coupling gives rise to Fano-Feshbach resonances (FFR) that have be
come key to understanding and controlling interactions - in ultracold atomic gases, but also between quasiparticles such as microcavity polaritons. The energy positions of FFR were shown to follow quantum chaotic statistics. In contrast, lifetimes which are the fundamental property of a decaying state, have so far escaped a similarly comprehensive understanding. Here we show that a bound state, despite being resonantly coupled to a scattering state, becomes protected from decay whenever the relative phase is a multiple of $pi$. We observe this phenomenon by measuring lifetimes spanning four orders of magnitude for FFR of spin-orbit excited molecular ions with merged beam and electrostatic trap experiments. Our results provide a blueprint for identifying naturally long-lived states in a decaying quantum system.
Doubly-excited Rydberg states of helium (He) nanodroplets have been studied using synchrotron radiation. We observed Fano resonances related to the atomic N = 2,0 series as a function of droplet size. Although similar qualitatively to their atomic co
unterparts, the resonance lines are broader and exhibit a shift in energy which increases for the higher excited states. Furthermore, additional resonances are observed which are not seen in atomic systems. We discuss these features in terms of delocalized atomic states perturbed by the surrounding He atoms and compare to singly excited droplets.
It is well established that nearly all high-quality (Q) Fano-like resonances in terahertz (THz) metasurfaces broaden as asymmetry increases, resulting in a decline of Q-factor and an increase in the resonance intensity. Therefore, in order to determi
ne the optimal design for applications in THz sensing, a Figure of Merit (FoM) is required. Previous studies have identified the asymmetry regimes at which the peak FoM occurs for various, specific unit cell geometries. However to date, there is no systematic comparison of the resulting FoMs for common and novel geometries. Here, a THz planar metafilm featuring split ring resonators with four distributed capacitive gaps is investigated to compare three unique methods of implementing asymmetry: (1) adjacent L-bracket translation, (2) capacitive gap translation and (3) increasing gap width. The results obtained find that by translating two gaps and increasing the bottom gap width of the unit cell, the high-Q Fano-like resonances are $6 times$ higher than the FoM for the fundamental dipole mode. This work further informs the design process for THz metasurfaces and as such will help to define their applications in photonics and sensing.
