“…The investigations showed that the GH effect might have potential applications in optical sensors [6][7][8][9] optical switching [10], detection of chemical vapors [11], polarizers [12], lasers [13], filters [14] and integrated optics [15]. The major positive and negative GH shifts for both transmitted and reflected beams were reported in the multilayer structures [16][17][18][19], photonic crystals [20][21][22], lefthanded materials [23][24][25][26], antiferromagnet [27], metamaterials [28,29], nonabsorbent or absorbing media [30][31][32], photonic-magnonic crystals [33]. The tunability and switching properties of the lateral shift are very significant in the application of the GH effect and have been investigated extensively by several researchers.…”
