Abstract

A novel nonlinear polarimetric technique based on a vector interaction of polarization-modulated optical waves and heterodyne detection of nonlinear change of optical polarization is described and discussed. The technique is demonstrated as an accurate and sensitive spectroscopic tool for investigation of the nonlinear processes in light- transducing biopolymers like rhodopsins and chlorophylls.
