An assembly and method for separating first radiation and second radiation in the far field, wherein the first radiation and the second radiation have non-overlapping wavelengths, The assembly comprises a capillary structure, wherein the first radiation and the second radiation propagate coaxially along at least a portion of the capillary structure, and an optical structure configured to control the spatial distribution of the first radiation outside of the capillary structure, through interference, such that the intensity of the first radiation in the far field is reduced along an optical axis of the second radiation.
