Abstract: | The lateral shift of a TE-polarized beam reflected from the Kretschmann-Raether structure with a weakly absorbing left-handed slab is studied theoretically. It is shown that the lateral shift can be very large negative as well as positive near the resonant condition. These large negative and positive shifts can be one order of magnitude much larger than the shift from the corresponding nonabsorbing slab. As the absorption factor increases, the incident angle of producing largest lateral shift increases when the thickness is kept unchanged but the thickness of the slab of producing largest lateral shift decreases when the incident angle is kept unchanged. |
