Quasinormal mode as a foundational framework for all electromagnetic Fano resonances

Abstract

Fano profiles are observed across various fields of wave physics. They emerge from interference phenomena and are quantified by the asymmetry parameter q. In optics, q is usually considered as a phenomenological coefficient obtained by fitting experimental or numerical data. In this work, we introduce an ab initio Maxwellian approach using quasinormal modes to analytically describe line shapes in light scattering problems. We show that the response of each individual quasinormal mode inherently exhibits a Fano profile and derive an explicit analytical formula for the Fano parameter. Experimental and numerical validations confirm the formula's accuracy across a broad spectrum of electromagnetic systems. The general expression for q opens new possibilities for fine-tuning and optimizing spectral line shapes in electromagnetism.
