Kerr Effect of Some New Organic Kerr Solutions
Journal of the Physical Society of Japan, 1998The electro optic Kerr constant of many new organic solutions comprising of the substituted aromatic carbonyl and nitrile compounds as solutes in nitrobenzene, for various molar concentrations of the solutes has been measured. We found several solutions having Kerr constants greater than that of nitrobenzene.

RECENT observations on bulk samples of polystyrene and polymethyl methacrylate have shown the existence of a Kerr-type electro-optic effect in these materials, the application of an electric field to the sample giving rise to a change in optical refractive index which is proportional to the square of the applied field, for light polarized normally to ...

An apparatus is described which can be used by students to study electric birefringence (the Kerr electro-optical effect). Using pulsed electric fields, the birefringence is observed as a transient phenomenon which is also instructive in an understanding of rate processes.

Physical Review Letters, 1976
A new effect is demonstrated in which a laser pulse can be made to induce a Kerr effect only at Raman-shifted frequencies. This permitted the observation of a Raman spectrum with a single dye-laser pulse. The pulse power required is a small fraction of that required to produce stimulated instabilities.

Kerr effect in hybrid plasmonic waveguides
Journal of the Optical Society of America B, 2016Hybrid plasmonic waveguides, in which light is guided by a combination of dielectric and plasmonic confinement, are likely to play a key role in compact nonlinear optical devices. Although their absorption loss is considerable, through a small device footprint and careful optimization, a significant nonlinear phase shift may be achieved. Here, we study

Kerr effect from single gold nanoparticles
SPIE Proceedings, 2014ABSTRACT The nonlinear optical modulation of a light beam (or Kerr effect) by a single gold metallic nanoparticle has been obtained by the P-Scan method. The 80 nm diameter gold nanoparticles were spread on a glass substrate and investigated with a tightly focused femtosecond laser beam at the fundamental wavelength of 840 nm for different incident ...

Optical Kerr Effect in Supercooled Water
Physical Review Letters, 2005We present molecular dynamics simulations of the optical Kerr effect in liquid and supercooled water and compare with recent time-resolved Kerr spectroscopy measurements [R. Torre, Nature (London) 428, 296 (2004)]. The short time features of the Kerr response, characterized by peaks near 15, 60, and 160 fs, are weakly temperature dependent.

Optical Kerr effect in long fibers
Applied Optics, 1981Optical Kerr modulation of >100% is demonstrated in long birefringent optical fibers using low laser powers of ~1 W. We have experimentally investigated the effects of group-velocity dispersion, thermal stability of polarization, and fiber birefringence.

Theory of magneto-optic Kerr effects
Physical Review B, 1994The theory of magneto-optic Kerr effects is formulated on the basis of classical interaction of light and matter in a coordinate system attached to the light wave. Induced polarization of the magnetic medium along the propagation axis of the electromagnetic wave is described in terms of an equivalent electric field and the effects are incorporated in ...
