The femtosecond optical Kerr effect in molten caesium chloride

Femtosecond time-resolved measurements of the optical Kerr effect in molten caesium chloride have been made. Amplified laser pulses of 115 fs duration and 1 mu J energy were used to induce a birefringence. The transmission of a weak probe pulse of the same duration gives a value of 180 fs for the re...
