Description
Electrogyration studies of Li2Gd4(MoO4)7 are presented. The application of an electric field lowers the symmetry of the centrosymmetric crystal from point group 4/m into 4 and the crystal may become optically active. The angle of rotation of the plane of polarization of light can be increased by increasing sample thickness and electric field or decreasing wave length. The electrogyration coefficients γ333 of different kinds of centrosymmetric crystals (molybdates and vanadates) are given
