چکیده

Geometrical optics is extended so as to provide a model for spinning light rays via the coadjoint orbits of the Euclidean group characterized by color and spin. This leads to a theory of “geometrical spinoptics” in refractive media. Symplectic scattering yields generalized Snell-Descartes laws that include the recently discovered optical Hall effect.

Finsler Spinoptics

The objective of this article is to build up a general theory of geometrical optics for spinning light rays in an inhomogeneous and anisotropic medium modeled on a Finsler manifold. The prerequisites of local Finsler geometry are reviewed together with the main properties of the Cartan connection used in this work. Then, the principles of Finslerian spinoptics are formulated on the grounds of p...

Geometrical spinoptics & symplectic geometry

The object of this talk is to illustrate the usefulness of symplectic geometry in understanding new features of geometrical optics for spinning light in refractive media, e.g., the subtle transverse shift of light beams across an interface, which has been coined the Spin Hall Effect of Light [1]. We reformulate Fermat’s principle to describe spinning light rays in Riemannian three-manifolds, (M...

Study on structural, luminescence properties and Hall Effect of SnO2 nanoparticles obtained by a Co-precipitation technique

In this paper, we report the synthesis of tin oxide (SnO2) nanoparticles by co-precipitation technique. The structural, surface morphology, thermal and optical properties of the SnO2 samples were analysed using X-ray diffraction (XRD), High-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM), Fourier transformed infrared (FTIR) spectrum, thermo gravimetric analysis (TGA/DT...

بررسی تاثیر شیوه خشک سازی بر خواص اپتیکی فیلم های نازک نانو ساختاری اکسید نیکل

The nanostructured nickel oxide thin films were prepared by dip coating sol – gel method. Three methods (drying with oven, IR and microwave) have used for drying the films. The effect of drying method on the optical, molecular, electrical, structural, and morphology properties of the films were studied by Uv-Visible spectrophotometry, Fourier Transform Infrared spectroscopy, Hall effect, X-ray ...

Geometrical aspects in optical wave-packet dynamics.

We construct a semiclassical theory for propagation of an optical wave packet in a nonconducting medium with a periodic structure of dielectric permittivity and magnetic permeability, i.e., a nonconducting photonic crystal. We employ a quantum-mechanical formalism in order to clarify its link to those of electronic systems. It involves the geometrical phase, i.e., Berry's phase, in a natural wa...
