Abstract

The Goos-Hänchen (GH) shifts in the reflected light are investigated both for p and s polarized partial coherent light beams incident on epsilon-near-zero (ENZ) metamaterials. In contrary to the coherent counterparts, the magnitude of GH shift becomes non-zero for p polarized partial coherent light beam; while GH shift can be relatively large with a small degree of spatial coherence for s polarized partial coherent beam. Dependence on the beam width and the permittivity of ENZ metamaterials is also revealed for partial coherent light fields. Our results on the GH shifts provide a direction on the applications for partial coherent light sources in ENZ metamaterials.

Highlights

  • The Goos-Hänchen (GH) shifts in the reflected light are investigated both for p and s polarized partial coherent light beams incident on epsilon-near-zero (ENZ) metamaterials

  • We show the influence of spatial coherence and beam width of partial coherent light on the GH shift for both p and s polarized lights

  • We reveal the dependence on the beam width and the permittivity of ENZ metamaterials, both for p and s partial coherent light fields

Summary

Introduction

The Goos-Hänchen (GH) shifts in the reflected light are investigated both for p and s polarized partial coherent light beams incident on epsilon-near-zero (ENZ) metamaterials. In this Report, we consider a p or s polarized partial coherent light field incident on ENZ metamaterials and study the GH shift from the reflection.
