A photonic nanojet antenna system includes a dielectric element having a circular cross section and formed of a single dielectric material, and at least one feed antenna. The circular-shaped cross section of the dielectric element has a diameter such that a photonic nanojet, that is a narrow high-intensity electromagnetic beam, propagates from the dielectric element and into the feed antenna when the dielectric element is illuminated with electromagnetic plane waves. The dielectric element can be, but is not limited to, a sphere, a truncated cylinder, or an ellipsoid.
