contents Fano resonance, arising from the interference between a discrete resonance and a continuum of states, results in sharp and asymmetric line shapes and has significant applications in advanced photonic devices, particularly in sensing, filtering, and nonlinear optics. Nowadays, metasurfaces comprised of engineering microstructures play a crucial role in generation and manipulation of Fano resonance in photonics. However, current metasurfaces dominantly rely on local symmetry breaking of the microstructures to induce Fano resonances, which significant limits their tunability and scalable fabrication for practical applications. To address the challenge, a metal-dielectric hybrid metasurface is demonstrated to achieve nonlocal generation of Fano resonance with no symmetry breaking in the terahertz (THz) band. The Fano resonance, including its existence and peak frequency, is sensitively controlled by the thickness and dielectric constant of the dielectric layer, which is experimentally observed. Our analysis elucidates that the metallic layer with a pair of dumbbell holes leads to the band folding and coupling of guided modes within the dielectric layer. When the thickness or dielectric constant surpasses a critical value, the guided mode resonance falls below the diffraction limit, resulting in a unique nonlocal Fano resonance due to the interaction between the resonance and background transmission facilitated by dumbbell holes. Furthermore, the Fano transmission peak corresponds to an anapole excitation, revealed by multipole calculations. Benefiting from the ability to control the Fano resonance with no symmetry breaking, the proposed hybrid THz metasurface will advance broad applications in the fields of sensors, optical switches, and tunable filters.
