In this paper, the scattering of a single photon in a waveguide–resonator–qubit system is studied. An open waveguide is connected to two resonators, located at an arbitrary distance from each other and containing a single qubit each. The scattering of a single photon makes it possible to describe the behavior of the system completely quantum mechanically. We show the existence of Fano resonance, which is a direct manifestation of the interference between the incident photon and virtual photons associated with transitions between the states of the system. The obtained expressions for the transmission coefficients allowed us to take into account the influence of the incident photon frequency on the resonances and their widths.
