Two-Photon Spectroscopy in Faraday Configuration. II

抄録

One of the nonlinear optical effects in semiconductors in a static magnetic field is studied. The nonlinear conductivity induced by both a magnetic field and an intense optical field shows a light-intensity-dependent magnetic rotation. This is demonstrated experimentally by using a pulsed magnetic field and pulsed optical fields. The antireciprocity of this nonlinear rotation with respect to the direction of the applied magnetic field is shown. The rotation angle obtained in the present experiment is of the order of 10⁻¹ deg/cm.
