Recent Developments in Non-Local Optics

  • Conference paper

Abstract

In this paper a brief account is given of results of some recent investigations of four classes of effects due to non-locality (or spatial dispersion) upon optical phenomena in bounded solids. These are: Resonant Inelastic (Brillouin or Raman) Scattering; Transient Reflectivity; Wave Propagation and Additional Boundary Conditions in Gyrotropic Media; Lateral Beam Shift — Goos Hänchen Effect.
