Abstract

It is shown that despite the fact that in 432 point group crystals the linear electrooptic effect is vetoed by symmetry there are configurations for which the third-order effect may appear. The results obtained indicate that the 432 crystals are promising media for measurements of nonlinear electrooptic effects. Macroscopic description of nonlinear electrooptic phenomena in the crystals is presented and the matrices of tensors representing the effects up to the fifth-order are given.
