Theory of angular Goos-Hänchen shift near Brewster incidence

Abstract

We present here a compactly formulated application of the previously posted general formalism of the reflection of Gaussian beams at a dielectric interface ({arXiv:0710.1643v2 [physics.optics]}). Specifically, we calculate the Goos-Hänchen shift near Brewster incidence, for an air-glass plane interface.
