✦ Synopsis


Evidence of time-nonreversible nonreciprocal linear birefringence and dichroism has been observed in a GaAs crystal in experiments in transmission and reflection. Time-nonreversibility is treated in terms of the quantum theory of nonlocal optical response, revealing the role of the spin-orbit interaction.
