Fano microcavity with a pair of suspended resonant mirrors (2508.07848v1)

Abstract: We report on the realization of optical microcavities consisting in the plane-plane arrangement of two suspended Fano mirrors possessing spectrally overlapping high-quality factor internal resonances. We first investigate their generic transmission spectra as the cavity length is varied on the basis of a simple linear Fabry-Perot model, compare them with those of broadband mirror cavities or Fano cavities possessing a single Fano mirror, and then present an experimental realization using a pair of highly pretensioned, ultrathin silicon nitride films patterned with one-dimensional photonic crystal structures.
