▎ 摘  要

A U-shaped tunnel connected side coupled nanoring resonator waveguide system is proposed to generate Fano interference in a novel mechanism. By mutually coupling the infrared light through the artificially introduced U-tunnel to the two nanorings with the same resonant wavelength, single symmetric Lorentzian resonance transforms to asymmetric Fano resonance within the original resonant spectral range. The transparency window bridges the distinct constructive interferences in either rings instead of the canceling the bright mode resonance compared to former conceptions. The sensitivity of the system reaches 167 mu m/RIU far higher than the level of hundreds nanometers and is highly tunable. The light at resonance is successfully trapped and slowed down to 1/144 times the speed in vacuum, which is also flexible to release by tuning the Fermi energy of graphene rings. Overall, our ideas may pave new avenues to the design of classical analogy of Fano resonance metastructures, sensors or light storage devices.
