Topological shaping of vortex neutron beams using forked phase gratings
S. McKay, S. R. Parnell, R. M. Dalgliesh +6
Beams of light or matter that carry well-defined states of orbital angular momentum (OAM) are promising probes of topological and textured condensed matter systems such as magnetic…
Observation of a giant Goos-Hänchen shift for matter waves
S. McKay, V. O. de Haan, J. Leiner +8
The Goos-Hänchen (GH) shift describes a phenomenon in which a specularly-reflected beam is laterally translated along the reflecting surface such that the incident and reflected ra…
Neutron spin echo is a "quantum tale of two paths''
S. McKay, A. A. M. Irfan, Q. Le Thien +7
We describe an experiment that strongly supports a two-path interferometric model in which the spin-up and spin-down components of each neutron propagate coherently along spatially…
Spin-Textured Neutron Beams with Orbital Angular Momentum
Quan Le Thien, Sam McKay, Roger Pynn +1
We present a rigorous theoretical framework underpinning the technique of spin-echo modulated small-angle neutron scattering (SEMSANS), and show how the technique can be extended i…
