Goos-Haenchen and Imbert-Fedorov shifts of a nondiffracting Bessel beam

arXiv:1011.1336 · doi:10.1364/OL.36.000543

Abstract

Goos-Haenchen and Imbert-Fedorov shifts are diffractive corrections to geometrical optics that have been extensively studied for a Gaussian beam that is reflected or transmitted by a dielectric interface. Propagating in free space before and after reflection or transmission, such a Gaussian beam spreads due to diffraction. We address here the question how the Goos-Haenchen and Imbert-Fedorov shifts behave for a ``nondiffracting'' Bessel beam.
