Abstract
We have developed a modified theory of the spin Hall effect of reflected light from a planar interface composed of two dielectric media and obtain the analytical expression valid for any incident angle including the Brewster's angle. We improved the experimental method and measured the spin-dependent transverse displacement of reflected light from a planar air-glass interface around the Brewster's angle. The experimental results are in agreement with the theoretical prediction.
