experimental methods were not sensitive enough, and the effect was only measured thirty years later by John Kerr. Faraday then attempted to look for the effects...

solids show the Pockels effect, as it requires lack of inversion symmetry Kerr effect (or quadratic electro-optic effect, QEO effect): change in the refractive...

Kerr-lens mode-locking (KLM) is a method of mode-locking lasers via the nonlinear optical Kerr effect. This method allows the generation of pulses of...

Optical Kerr effect, intensity-dependent refractive index (a χ ( 3 ) {\displaystyle \chi ^{(3)}} effect). Self-focusing, an effect due to the optical Kerr effect...

will induce a varying refractive index of the medium due to the optical Kerr effect. This variation in refractive index will produce a phase shift in the...
