Macroscopic theory of nonlinear optical activity in a nonconductive isotropic chiral medium

Research output: Contribution to journalArticlepeer-review

Abstract

A nonconductive isotropic chiral medium is described by using classical electromagnetic theory. The phenomenon of nonlinear optical activity of a linearly polarized signal light under the action of a circularly polarized pump light is investigated. The expressions of nonlinear optical rotational angle are given. The calculated results using the expressions are in accordance to the experimental results.
