The Goos-Hanchen (GH) effect is an interference effect on total internal reflection at an interface, resulting in a shift sigma of the reflected beam along the interface. We show that the GH effect at a p-n interface in graphene depends on…

It is standard practice to study the lensing of gravitational waves (GW) using the geometric optics regime. However, in many astrophysical configurations this regime breaks down as the wavelength becomes comparable to the Schwarzschild…

The spin Hall effect of light (SHEL), which refers to a spin-dependent and transverse splitting at refraction and reflection phenomena, inherently depends on the polarization states of the incidence. Most of the previous research have…
