The simultaneous realization of high Q-factor resonances and strong near-field enhancements around and inside of dielectric nanostructures is important for many applications in nanophotonics. However, the incident fields are often confined within dielectric nanoparticles, which results in poor optical interactions with external environment. Near-field enhancements can be extended outside of dielectric nanostructures with proper design, but the Q-factor is often reduced caused by additional radiation losses. This paper shows that the obstacles to achieve high Q-factor, that is, the radiative losses can be effectively suppressed by using dielectric nanodisk arrays, where the Q-factor is about one order larger than that of the single disks associated with the nonradiating anapole modes and the collective oscillations of the arrays. When the resonance energies of the electric dipole mode and the subradiant mode are degenerate with each other, the destructive interference produces an effect analogous to electromagnetically induced transparency. Furthermore, the Q-factor can be extremely enlarged with dielectric split nanodisk arrays, where the present of the split gap does not induce additional losses. Instead, the coupling between the two interfering modes is modified by adjusting the gap width, which makes it possible to achieve high Q-factor and strong near-field enhancements around and inside of the split disks simultaneously. It is shown that the Q-factor is approaching to 106 when the gap width is about 110 nm, and the near-field enhancements around and inside of the split disks are about two orders stronger than that of the single disk.
