The Goos-Hänchen (GH) effect is an interference effect on total internal reflection at an interface, resulting in a shift sigma of the reflected beam along the interface. We show that the GH effect at a p-n interface in graphene depends on the pseudospin (sublattice) degree of freedom of the massless Dirac fermions, and find a sign change of sigma at angle of incidence alpha=arcsin sqrt[sinalpha{c}] determined by the critical angle alpha{c} for total reflection. In an n-doped channel with p…

It is suggested that the CGD and its GH component can be electrostatically measured by the conductance difference in a spin precession experiment under weak magnetic fields, and it is indicated that it is a generally nonzero self-interference delay that relates the IGD to the dwell time in graphene.
