Abstract
The influence of reorientational processes on circular intensity difference scattering (CIDS) in a static electric field E0 is analyzed for systems of optically active dipolar molecules with the point group symmetries 3, 4, 6, and ∞ and of optically active nondipolar molecules with the symmetries 32, 422, and 622 for three experimental configurations: (i) at E0 perpendicular to the plane of scattering; (ii) E0 parallel to the incident light beam; and (iii) E0 parallel to the wave scattered in the direction of observation. The effect is described in terms of molecular reorientation functions and is dependent on the experimental field configuration, the electro-optical properties of the molecules, and the field strength E0. Numerical calculations of molecular reorientation functions are performed for arbitrary degrees of electric saturation. The effects are accessible to observation in solutions of macromolecules by advanced laser and optoelectronic techniques.
