Circular photovoltaic effect in optically active liquids
Koroteev N. I.
A new nonlinear optoelectric effect is predicted in optically active isotropic liquids on the basis of a phenomenological analysis. Specifically, a photovoltaic current would be generated when a circularly polarized light wave is applied to a liquid which has an electrical conductivity and an absorption at the optical frequency. © 1995 American Institute of Physics.
