Abstract
The Kerr coefficient of nitrobenzene was measured over the temperature range 285–340 K. To within experimental error, the data indicate that the Kerr coefficient can be expressed as a quadratic function of reciprocal temperature. Fitting the data to this quadratic function yields an equation which can be used to correct the response of a pulse-voltage measuring system based on the Kerr effect for variations in the ambient temperature.This publication has 5 references indexed in Scilit:
