Abstract
We experimentally investigate the interaction of linearly polarized light with a holographic grating in a conical mounting. Due to the periodic structure, the polarization properties of the reflected zeroth-order beam are highly sensitive to the conical angle. When a focused Gaussian beam with linear polarization impinges on an air–grating interface at an exceptional conical angle, a spatial splitting of the reflected beam is observed behind a polarizer. We find that it can be interpreted using the anisotropy of the polarization distribution in holographic grating reflection.
