Abstract
Optical Fano resonances due to resonant eigenmodes in a
layered periodically-modulated
structure (photonic crystal slab) are investigated theoretically.
The special attention is focused
on the behavior of the resonances near
a diffraction threshold. A new formulation of
the resonant mode approximation for the optical scattering matrix near
the diffraction threshold anomalies is proposed.
