Goos–Hänchen and Imbert–Fedorov shifts from a quantum-mechanical perspective
We study the classical optics effects known as Goos–Hänchen and Imbert–Fedorov shifts, occurring when reflecting a bounded light beam from a planar surface, by using a quantum-mechanical formalism. This new approach allows us to naturally separate the spatial shift into two parts, one independent on...
