Identifying subwavelength objects and displacements is of crucial importance in optical nanometrology. We show in this Letter that nanoantennas with subwavelength structures can be excited precisely by incident beams with singularity. This accurate feeding beyond the diffraction limit can lead to dynamic control of the unidirectional scattering in the far field. The combination of the field discontinuity of the incoming singular beam with the rapid phase variation near the antenna leads to remarkable sensitivity of the far-field scattering to the displacement at a scale much smaller than the wavelength. This Letter introduces a far-field deep subwavelength position detection method based on the interaction of singular optics with nanoantennas. DOI: 10.1103/PhysRevLett.117.113903 Great efficiencies have been achieved using nanoantennas to control light at the nanoscale [1][2][3][4]. The recently developed configuration of antenna arrays at optical frequencies, also called a metasurface, has propelled many applications of controlling the direction of far-field scattering [5][6][7][8][9]. The dynamic control of the scattering directivity requires precise excitation of the appropriate currents in the antenna [10,11]. Since the building blocks of ultracompact nanoantennas are subwavelength nanoparticles whose size and interparticle gaps are both beyond the diffraction limit, it is quite challenging to distinguish and precisely excite these arrays using far-field optical schemes. Previous works addressed this issue using polarization selective excitation of different antenna elements [6,12]. These antenna arrays are based on a similar concept as those used in microwave antenna arrays, in particular, the gaps between the individual elements are comparable to the working wavelength. One of the promising approaches is to use spatially inhomogeneous light to control the near-field hot spot produced by the nanoantennas [13]. However, it still remains an open question how to precisely excite deep subwavelength antennas for the active control of the farfield unidirectional scattering.Singular optics has been an intriguing candidate for the study of techniques far beyond the diffraction limit [14]. The singularity usually refers to the discontinuity or undefined value in the light field itself. Around these singularities of the fields, rapidly spatially varying field patterns occur, which has led to new applications such as high-precision nanoscale metrology and superresolution imaging [13,[15][16][17][18][19][20][21][22][23].In this Letter, we use two different kinds of singularities: The so-called V-point polarization singularity in an azimuthally polarized beam [24][25][26] and the phase singularity in a Hermite-Gaussian beam to precisely excite one individual element of two identical parallel metallic nanorod antennas separated by a deep subwavelength gap. The precise alignment of the singularity with the two nanorods gives an accurate feeding of them far beyond the diffraction limit. As will be shown, this excitation ...
