Giant Goos-Hanchen effect at the reflection from left-handed metamaterials
arXiv:physics/0305032 · doi:10.1063/1.1615678
Abstract
We study the beam reflection from a layered structure with a left-handed metamaterial. We predict a giant lateral (Goos-Hanchen) shift and splitting of the beam due to the resonant excitation of surface polaritons with a vortex-like energy flow between the right- and left-handed materials.
