Diffraction limited photonic hook via scattering and diffraction of dual-dielectric structures

Abstract Photonic hooks have demonstrated to be great candidates for multiple applications ranging from sensing up to optical trapping. In this work, we propose a mechanism to produce such bent structured light beams by exploiting the diffraction and scattering generated by a pair of dielectric rect...
