Sharp trapped-mode resonances in planar metamaterials with a broken structural symmetry
TLDR
It is reported that a resonance response with a very high quality factor can be achieved in a planar metamaterial by introducing symmetry breaking in the shape of its structural elements, which enables excitation of trapped modes, i.e., modes that are weakly coupled to free space.Abstract:

Fano resonances in nanoscale structures
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors introduce the concept of Fano resonances, which can be reduced to the interaction of a discrete (localized) state with a continuum of propagation modes, and explain their geometrical and/or dynamical origin.

Plasmonic nanoantennas: fundamentals and their use in controlling the radiative properties of nanoemitters.
TL;DR: Plasmonic resonances in nanoantennas overcome constraints on the resolution to which an object can be imaged, as well as the size of the transverse cross section of efficient guiding structures to the wavelength dimension, allowing unprecedented control of light-matter interactions within subwavelength volumes.
