Abstract

A quantum calculation of the optical activity and gyrotropic birefringence is used in a molecular crystal to deduce symmetry properties. A study of the variation of the components of these tensors, when a change of origin occurs, is used to account for the formula for the electric excitation proposed by Landau and Lifchitz. It is shown that the results obtained are valid in the case of crystals with nonlocalized electrons.
