Abstract

It has been shown that space–time inversion symmetry breaking at the normal incidence of a quasiplane wave on an asymmetric multilayer structure in the Voigt geometry can result in the formation of the angular Goos–Hänchen effect at reflection and transmission, as well as the spatial Goos–Hänchen effect at transmission. The effects are characterized by nonreciprocity not only with respect to the inversion of direction of static magnetic field but also with respect to the permutation of nongyrotropic layers surrounding a gyrotropic layer.
