Abstract
We measured the surface plasmon polariton (SPP) enhanced Goos-Hanchen (GH) shift based on liquid crystal (LC) and grating technologies. An optical setup is used to convert the spatial displacement to incidence angle variation to a Littrow mounted diffraction grating. As a consequence, the GH shift information could be obtained from the back-reflected center wavelength that fulfills the Littrow condition. An LC cell is used to adjust the polarization state of the incident light without mechanical movement. About 10- μm GH shift difference between transverse-electric (TE) and transverse-magnetic (TM) mode lights were measured associated with the SPP excitation. The corresponding center wavelength shift of the returned beam is 404 pm. The relationship between energy conversion and GH shift is also investigated.
