The polarization properties of a tilted polarizer
Jan Korger, Tobias Kolb, Peter Banzer +4
Polarizers are key components in optical science and technology. Thus, understanding the action of a polarizer beyond oversimplifying approximations is crucial. In this work, we st…
Distributing Entanglement with Separable States
Christian Peuntinger, Vanessa Chille, Ladislav Mišta +5
Like a silver thread, quantum entanglement [1] runs through the foundations and breakthrough applications of quantum information theory. It cannot arise from local operations and c…
Observation of the geometric spin Hall effect of light
Jan Korger, Andrea Aiello, Vanessa Chille +5
The spin Hall effect of light (SHEL) is the photonic analogue of spin Hall effects occurring for charge carriers in solid-state systems. Typical examples of this intriguing phenome…
Geometric Spin Hall Effect of Light at Polarizing Interfaces
Jan Korger, Andrea Aiello, Christian Gabriel +4
The geometric Spin Hall Effect of Light (geometric SHEL) amounts to a polarization-dependent positional shift when a light beam is observed from a reference frame tilted with respe…
