Zusammenfassung: | The elasto-optic properties of liquids on the basis of the first principles of acousto-optics were theoretically investigated. A relationship for calculating the elasto-optic constant of liquids using only the refractive index was obtained. The refractive index values corresponding to the maximum elasto-optic constant for polar and nonpolar liquids were determined. Calculations for about 100 liquids were performed and compared with known experimental data. This study significantly extends our understanding of the acousto-optic effect and has practical applications for predicting the elasto-optic constant of a liquid and estimating its wavelength dispersion. |
