Molecular polarizability anisotropy of liquid water revealed by terahertz-induced transient orientation
The intermolecular dynamics of liquid water impact most biological processes. Here, the authors use intense terahertz electromagnetic pulses to generate a transient, out-of-equilibrium state of the water network to show that the molecules become oriented and probe the polarizability of this anisotro...
