Abstract
In this study, we propose a novel design of triangular mesoscale Janus prisms for the generation of the long photonic hook. Numerical simulations based on the finite-difference time-domain method are used to examine the formation mechanism of the photonic hook. The electric intensity distributions near the micro-prisms are calculated for operation at different refractive indices and spaces of the two triangular micro-prisms. The asymmetric vortices of intensity distributions result in a long photonic hook with a large bending angle. The length and the bending angle of the photonic hook are efficiently modulated by changing the space between the two triangular micro-prisms. Moreover, the narrow width of the photonic hook is achieved beyond the diffraction limit. The triangular Janus micro-prisms have high potential for practical applications in optical tweezers, nanoparticle sorting and manipulation and photonic circuits.
