| Assuming the low molecular reorientation approximation, the formulae for the third-order electric polarization induced in liquids composed of rigid noninteracting dipolar, symmetric-top molecules in spherical solvents were derived. Our medium is acted on by a strong external dc bias electric field superimposed on a weak ac electric field, and the classical Smoluchowski-Debye equation for rotational diffusion of the symmetric-top molecules is applied. In order to highlight the influence of the anisotropy of rotational diffusion tensor components and the orientation of permanent dipole moment of the molecule on the complex linear and nonlinear electric susceptibilities, we present three-dimensional plots of the linear and nonlinear dispersion and absorption spectra, for different values of the frequency of ac electric field. |
