TL;DR: In this paper, a solution of the differencedifferential equations describing the optical diffraction by an ultrasonic wave is given, and general formulas for the molecular orientational relaxation time T and for the parameter G, related to the phase difference between the two refractive indices, are found to be functions of the phase angle and the rotation of the polarization plane of the incident light beam.
Abstract: Abstruct-A solution of the differencedifferential equations describing the optical diffraction by an ultrasonic wave is given. As a result, general formulas for the molecular orientational relaxation time T and for the parameter G, related to the phase difference between the two refractive indices, are found to be functions of the phase angle and the rotation of the polarization plane of the incident light beam. These formulas hold within, as well as outside, the Raman-Nath region for any diffraction order. with
