“…6,7 In recent years, great efforts have been made to generate Fano line shapes in plasmonic nanostructures and apply them to develop novel optical devices such as optical sensors and switches. 2 To date, a variety of plasmonic nanostructures, including metallic nanowire arrays, 8 clusters of nanoparticles, [9][10][11][12][13] disk/ring nanocavities, [14][15][16] and metal-insulator-metal waveguides coupled to resonators, 17 are known to exhibit Fano line shapes. In spite of the intensive work done, the fabrication of the nanostructures is not always easy and is time consuming, preventing their real applications.…”
