摘要:
Birefringence studies on conducting solutions are not easily performed for several experimental reasons; these difficulties are discussed. An apparatus which allows Kerr effect experiments on high ionic strength solutions is described. It is built around a fast high‐power switching device, which generates the electric pulse. Rectangular pulses of 30 kV can be applied to weakly conducting solutions (<10−2MNaCl). For a 0.1MNaCl solution, the amplitude still reaches 15 kV. In any case, the 10%–90% rise and decay time is about 50 nsec. The pulse amplitude and duration are adjustable in large limits. This pulse generator can also be used to apply reversing pulses or sinusoi¨dal wave bursts. It is possible with this apparatus to measure the electric birefringence of urea, for instance, in high ionic strength solvents (NaCl 0.1M).
