Abstract
The optical properties of molecules may he affected by an electric field. With suitable molecules, these effects allow to determine the electric dipole moments and certain components of the polarizability tensors in the ground state and in excited electronic states, the directions of transition moments and certain components of the transition polarizability tensors. The magnitude of the electrooptical effects depends on the effective electric field acting on the molecule. In preceding papers the representation of the effective field was based on the Onsager model. More recent experimental investigations have shown that this approximation is not sufficient when using polar solvents. Here, local fluctuations of the electric field have to be taken into account. Basing on previous theories, an extension including these effects is developed which agrees with the experimental results, as will be shown in the following paper7. Also, an approximate expression is derived for the mean square of the effective electric fieldKeywords
