Zusammenfassung

Erzeugt man in einem flüssigen Dielektrikum, wie wasserfreiem Äthanol, Schwefelkohlenstoff, p-Tolylazetat oder Nitrobenzol, zwischen speziell gestalteten Elektroden ein elektrisches Feld von etwa 10000 V/cm, so wird ein Lichtstrahl, der die im Feld befindlichen Teile der Flüssigkeit durchsetzt, gekrümmt. Die Ablenkung des Strahls aus der geraden Richtung beträgt in manchen Fällen 1°.
