51. The optical theory presented here closely resembles those developed for thermal lens spectroscopy. The difference lies in the origin of the lens. While in thermal lens spectroscopy, the lens is caused by temperature induced refractive index change, in Kerr-lens, the lens is induced through the optical Kerr effect. For the latest development, see M. Franko and C. D. Tran, Rev. Sci. Instrum. 67, 1 (1996), and references therein.
