Abstract

We examine the spin-orbit coupling effects that appear when a wave carrying intrinsic angular momentum interacts with a medium. The Berry phase is shown to be a manifestation of the Coriolis effect in a noninertial reference frame attached to the wave. In the most general case, when both the direction of propagation and the state of the wave are varied, the phase is given by a simple expression that unifies the spin redirection Berry phase and the Pancharatnam-Berry phase. The theory is supported by the experiment demonstrating the spin-orbit coupling of electromagnetic waves via a surface plasmon nanostructure. The measurements verify the unified geometric phase, demonstrated by the observed polarization-dependent shift (spin-Hall effect) of the waves.

  • A paraxial beam propagating in an optical fiber or along the optical axis of a uniaxial anisotropic crystal undergoes spin-to-vortex conversion.

    “(iii) A similar spin-to-vortex conversion occurs when a paraxial (collimated) beam propagates in an optical fiber 34 or along the optical axis of a uniaxial anisotropic crystal 35,36 .”

    From Spin–orbit interactions of light (2015) · cites this paper as [34]

    The passages on orbital angular momentum and phase vortices (section labeled Abstract, page unavailable) do not describe spin-to-vortex conversion in a paraxial beam. Searches for optical-fiber propagation and propagation along a uniaxial crystal’s optical axis found no passage addressing either setting in our copy. (LLM, conf=0.75)

  • The spin-orbit Lagrangian can be treated as the angular Doppler effect term, which describes the phase shift of the wave carrying intrinsic angular momentum Σ and undergoing rotational evolution with angular frequency Ω.

    “At the same time, Eq. (3.14) shows that it can be treated as the angular Doppler effect term, which describes the phase shift of the wave carrying intrinsic angular momentum Σ and undergoing rotational evolution with angular frequency Ω [68 -80].”

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
