This article presents a thermally tunable Fano resonator obtained by asymmetrically coupling a conductive rubber‐based H‐shaped split ring resonator (SRR) and a copper C‐shaped SRR coated on a Teflon fiberglass slab substrate. Thermal tunability of the Fano resonance is provided by the temperature‐sensitive resistance property of the conductive rubber. The thermal tunability of the Fano resonance obtained from the proposed resonator structure is demonstrated by both simulation and experimental results. This study provides a novel tunable approach for designing dynamical electromagnetic modulation devices.
