Abstract
It is experimentally demonstrated that a contactless exposure of alcohols to a high-strength electric field gives rise to an optical anisotropy varying with time both during the exposure and upon switching off the electric field. The effect is related to a field-induced structurization of the liquid and the formation of quasielectret layers with anomalous relaxation properties.
