Abstract
Scattering of refracting Huygens' metasurfaces is revisited. A new analytical closed-form solution is obtained for the two-dimensional problem under transverse electric (TE) plane-wave incidence -- a solution which gives the scattering for any (in-plane) angle of incidence and frequency. In the process of obtaining the solution, interesting mathematical concepts are considered -- such as solving and enforcing uniqueness upon an infinite system of equations. The obtained solution uncovers two previously unknown functionalities of refracting Huygens' metasurfaces -- namely reflectionless refraction and oblique absorption.
