Unique properties of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) such as high anisotropy could be utilised in liquid crystal (LC) medium and it may improve the physical properties of the host medium. In this regard, e...

We consider a four-level molecular system with two ground-state vibrational levels and two excited-state vibrational levels inside a constant cavity configuration. We discuss the reflected and transmitted Goos–Hänchen (GH) shifts of a positive and negative single-chirped laser pulse. The impacts of the laser field detuning, intensity of applied laser field, and appropriately tuning the chirp rate on GH shifts are then analyzed. It is also found that this sensor is very sensitive to the refractive index of the intracavity medium, which can coherently be controlled by the medium parameters. The results show that such a sensor can be most effective for detecting biological molecules with low concentration than the large number density, where a bit variation in the concentration of sample will lead to a great variation on the GH shifts.
