First time a theoretical approach towards the enhancement of spatial and angular Goos-Hanchen (GH) shift and Imbert-Fedorov (IF) shift for a Gaussian beam and Laguerre-Gaussian beam are observed, designed and simulated in four layer Kretschmann-Raether geometry at a free space wavelength of 1550 nm. Here the proposed configuration comprises a ZnSe prism and a liquid crystal layer of E44 between two silver layers through which spatial and angular GH shift and IF shift can be observed for Gaussian beam as well as LaguerreGaussian beam whereas the exact output beam position can only be accurately identified with the composite effect of spatial and angular GH shift and IF shift. Here with the variation of incident angle from 40 0 to 50 0 , the spatial and angular GH shift and IF shift have been calculated for two types of beams. This idea expedites the concept of optical tuning at μm ranges and reveals the exact output beam position for every experiments with different beams.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
