COHERENT CONTROL, FANO INTERFERENCE, AND NON-HERMITIAN INTERACTIONS
Fano interference arising from e.g. tunnel coupling of two semiconductor quantum wells can yield vanishing absorption of incident resonant radiation with nonzero stimulated emission. This is the basis for Harris-Fano lasing without inversion. It is here shown that it is interesting to analyze the problem in a basis such that the Fano decay matrix is diagonal.
