Abstract

Accurate measurement of the Goos–Hänchen (GH) shift serves as a crucial foundation for the deepening of its theories and the expansion of its applications. To meet the requirements for GH shift measurement, this study constructed a complete experimental system. Composed of a stable laser light source, a high-precision optical path control unit with adjustable incident angles, a high sensitivity detection scheme, and an integrated control and data processing module, this system possesses the capability of full-process measurement covering optical signal generation, adjustment, detection, and data analysis. To effectively obtain the GH shift, this research adopted the TE/TM polarization differential method for measurement experiments and discussed the performance indicators of the system. Experimental verification shows that the system can accomplish the GH shift measurement task accurately and reliably. The experimental platform established in this study provides a practical tool for in-depth theoretical research and application exploration of the GH shift. Furthermore, its high-precision measurement capability not only lays a foundation for the research and development of optical sensing technologies based on the GH shift phenomenon but also offers important support for further revealing the physical essence of the beam shift effect and exploring its potential technical application value.
