rule that a phase gradient imposed along an interface adds a lateral momentum to light, bending reflected and refracted beams to new angles.

In photonics, generalized Snell's law refers to rule that a phase gradient imposed along an interface adds a lateral momentum to light, bending reflected and refracted beams to new angles. This meaning comes from Yu (2011) in Science.[1]
