Reflection beamshifts of visible light due to graphene

Abstract

I present calculations of reflection beamshifts, Goos-Hänchen and Imbert-Fedorov shifts, due to the presence of a monolayer graphene on a dielectric media when using a beam with wavelength in the visible range. Measuring the Goos-Hänchen and Imbert-Fedorov shifts is an alternative method to determine graphene's conductivity. I look at beamshifts for different polarization states ($p$, $s$, $45^0$, ${\sigma }^{+}$) and I discuss other possible experimental routes to determine these beamshifts and consequently, the graphene's optical conductivity. The Goos-Hänchen shifts for visible light I calculated are in good agreement with results of a recent experiment.
