Abstract
Measurements were made of the Kerr constants of several mineral and silicon
e oils. The results indicate that these oils can be used to improve the sen
sitivity of measurements of the quadratic electro-optical effect in crystal
s. The possibility of using the electro-optical Kerr response of oils to de
termine experimentally the distribution of the electric field in high-volta
ge devices is discussed.
