Abstract
We report the first measurement of the spin Hall effect of light (SHEL) on an air–metal interface. The SHEL is a polarization-dependent out-of-plane shift on the reflected beam. For the case of metallic reflection with a linearly polarized incident light, both the spatial and angular variants of the shift are observed and are maximum for
