- Abstract
A technique is proposed for detecting the anisotropy in the angular distribution of photofragment spins on the basis of the birefringence effect. A comparative analysis is made of the nonresonant method of detection with the conventional resonance absorption method. It is shown that using the Faraday effect facilitates efficient detection of high concentrations of polarized photofragments. For an optically thick layer this is an important advantage over the absorption method. Thus, the proposed method supplements the method of detection using magnetic dichroism and permits high fragment concentrations to be studied.
