Figure 2. Iso-contours of the stored energy density for the trans state Inline graphic and the dipole interaction energy (PiEi) from Inline graphicI, which is given byInline graphic.

Figure 2

(a) Isotropic energy with no light present. (b) Energy surface when polarized light E is applied in the Inline graphic direction. The trans vectors tend to line up in a direction orthogonal to the light polarization as illustrated by the doughnut iso-energy surface.
