Goos-Hänchen lateral shift for Gaussian beams reflected at achiral-chiral interfaces

We investigate theoretically the spatial structure of electromagnetic Gaussian beams reflected at the flat interface of a chiral medium when the medium of incidence is achiral. We show that, due to the birefringence of the chiral medium, the Goss-Hänchen lateral displacement suffered by the beam upo...
