We report the observation of the Goos-H\"anchen effect in graphene via a weak value amplification scheme. We demonstrate that the amplified Goos-H\"anchen shift in weak measurements is sensitive to the variation of graphene layers.…

For optical beams, transmitted by a right angle prism, the Goos-Haenchen shift can never be seen as a pure effect. Indeed, the lateral displacement, caused by the total internal reflection, will always be accompanied by angular deviations…

For total reflection, the Goos-Hanchen (GH) shift is proportional to the wavelength of the laser beam. At critical angles, such a shift is instead proportional to the square root of the product of the beam waist and wavelength. By using the…
