We present a synthesis scheme to mold periodic nonradiative field patterns in transmission using the recent concept of metagratings (MGs). To this end, we utilize our previously developed analytical model to analyze the interaction of an incoming plane wave with these sparse periodic arrangements of polarizable particles (meta-atoms). As the model reliably predicts coupling to all scattered Floquet–Bloch modes, both propagating and evanescent, desired reactive near-field profiles with deep subwavelength features can be generated. This approach forms an appealing alternative to previously proposed near-field plates based on metasurfaces, where abstract homogenization introduces uncertainties regarding utilization of highly evanescent spectrum, and meta-atom realization incurs full-wave optimization. In contrast, the outlined MG-based methodology, verified via full-wave simulations, directly yields fabrication-ready printed-circuit-board configurations, enabling versatile control of reactive near fields with no interfering radiative components, with potential uses in sensing, selective microwave heating, and wireless power transfer.
