“…Therefore, combining the Fano-like response with MIM plasmonic structures would create the possibility of achieving ultracompact functional optical components for use in highly integrated optics [29]. The common characteristic of the papers reported about Fano resonances based on MIM waveguide system [13]- [16], [18], [19], [22], [26], [28], [30]- [35] is that the energy diffuses in every resonators, which makes the structures not very sensitive to the variation of refractive index of the material. Therefore, we need to find a new Fano forming structure, such that its energy can be concentrated mainly in a single resonator to obtain a high sensitivity of spectrum response to the index variations.…”
