TL;DR: In this paper, the electro optical Kerr coefficients of binary liquid mixtures, comprising of aprotic-aprotic molecules only, are measured over the temperature range of 286 K to 315 K.
Abstract: The electro optical Kerr coefficients of binary liquid mixtures, comprising of aprotic-aprotic molecules only, are measured over the temperature range of 286 K to 315 K. To with in experimental errors, the logarithm of Kerr coefficient can be expressed as Van't Hoff type expression to the reciprocal of temperature. Information on the interaction energy between the constituents of the binary mixtures is thereby obtained. It is found that the interaction energy in aromatic ketone-aliphatic nitrile binary mixtures is comparatively higher than in the binary mixtures with aliphatic ketone-aliphatic nitriles, aromatic ketone-aromatic nitrile and aromatic ketone-aliphatic ketones components. This is attributed to the dipole-dipole interaction existing between the components of the binary mixtures.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used the technique of static field induced second harmonic generation in liquids to determine the second order hyperpolarizability β and the third order hyper polarization γ, for a wide range of conjugated and nonconjugated organic molecules.
Abstract: We have used the technique of static field induced second harmonic generation in liquids to determine the second order hyperpolarizability β, and the third order hyperpolarizability γ, for a wide range of conjugated and nonconjugated organic molecules. The adequacy of the Onsager local field formulation was tested as was the accuracy of the bond additivity approximation. The large π‐electron nonlinearities which are possible in substituted benzene molecules were investigated by measuring a large number of benzene derivatives and subtracting out the σ‐electron contributions.
