    Abstract

    We study the effect of coupled resonances and quasibound states in the continuum (quasi-BICs) on the Purcell factor in dielectric resonant nanoantennas. We analyze numerically interfering resonances in a nanodisk with and without a substrate when the modes are coupled to an emitter localized inside the nanodisk, and we quantify the modal contributions to the Purcell factor also reconstructing the radiation patterns of the resonant system. It is revealed that the Purcell effect can be boosted substantially for a strong coupling of resonances in the quasi-BIC regime.
