Abstract
A complete review is given of polar Kerr rotation measurements on samples of superconducting cuprates and related materials. We discuss the details of the experimental technique we have employed to discriminate against linear polarization effects, and we compare our results to those of related experiments, We show that there are possible ways to reconcile all of the experimental data available at this time, and we suggest additional crucial experiments needed to make progress towards a definitive identification of the origin of the effect.Keywords
