Abstract

First order electric field induced optical rotatory dispersion, the analogue of the Faraday effect, is investigated in liquid bromochlorofluoromethane with molecular dynamics computer simulation, using a time varying electric field to conserve reversality. Frequency dependent features are identified which are the spectral signatures of electric circular dichroism and birefringence. These results indicate clearly, and for the first time, that there exists, under the right conditions, an electric analogue of the Faraday effect, mediated by the molecular electric hyperpolarisability tensor.
