Abstract It is crucial to control the tuning and improve the emission of a quantum emitter at the nanoscale. We report multiple Fano resonances in metallic nanostructures on an Er3+-doped tellurite glass. Periodic nanoslits were fabricated with a focused gallium ion beam on a gold thin film deposited on the tellurite glass. Is proposed a coupling function with Fano line-shape form, and the asymmetric parameter q for each resonance wavelength in the 515 to 535 nm region was calculated. This asymmetric resonance effect is a consequence of the quantum interaction between the continuum state, generated in the nanostructure, and the Stark splits of the $$^2$$ 2 H $$_{11/2}$$ 11 / 2 state.
