Probing the Broken Spatial Symmetry of a Stratified Medium with Structured Light

Arani Maiti, Sauvik Roy, Nirmalya Ghosh +2

We study theoretically near-symmetric resonant stratified media to show how a tiny broken spatial symmetry can effectively be probed by structured light with or without orbital ang…

Tunable Optical Torque by Asymmetry-Induced Spin-Hall Effect in Tightly Focused Spinless Gaussian Beams

Sauvik Roy, Ram Nandan Kumar, Biswajit Das +3

A linearly polarized Gaussian beam, carrying zero net spin angular momentum, is conventionally not expected to exert optical torque or induce rotational motion in birefringent micr…

Surface Plasmon Mediated Giant Goos-Hanchen and Imbert-Fedorov Shifts on a Corrugated Metal Surface

Arani Maiti, Sauvik Roy, Abhi Mondal +3

Enhanced beam shifts mediated by surface plasmon resonance (SPR) at metal-dielectric interfaces have been widely investigated. However, research on the associated Imbert-Fedorov or…

Can a vector beam be critically coupled leading to perfect absorption?

Sauvik Roy, Nirmalya Ghosh, Ayan Banerjee +1

Critical coupling has emerged as a prominent area of research in recent years. However, most theoretical models are based on scalar theories (and occasionally coupled mode theories…

A comprehensive study of the Spin-Hall effect of tightly focused linearly polarized light through a stratified medium in optical tweezers

Sramana Das, Sauvik Roy, Subhasish Dutta Gupta +2

The optical Spin-Hall effect originates from the interaction between the spin angular momentum (SAM) and extrinsic orbital angular momentum (OAM) of light, leading to mutual interr…

Quasi-coherent perfect absorption of counter-propagating vector beams of finite spatial extent through an absorptive slab

Sauvik Roy, Nirmalya Ghosh, Ayan Banerjee +1

Coherent perfect absorption (CPA) has been a topic of considerable contemporary research interest. Most of the theoretical treatment of CPA with beams, to the best of our knowledge…

Inhomogeneous spin momentum induced orbital motion of birefringent particles in tight focusing of vector beams in optical tweezers

Ram Nandan Kumar, Sauvik Roy, Anand Dev Ranjan +3

Spin orbit interaction (SOI) due to tight focusing of light in optical tweezers has led to exciting and exotic avenues towards inducing rotation in microscopic particles. However,…
