Abstract
Evidence of time-nonreversible nonreciprocal linear birefringence and dichroism has been observed in a GaAs crystal in experiments in transm ission and reflection. Time-nonreversibility is treated in terms of th e quantum theory of nonlocal optical response, revealing the role of t he spin-orbit interaction.
