In this paper, we present the first observation, to our knowledge, of orientational photorefractive [OPR] effects in nematic liquid crystal film. The effect is attributed to molecular axis reorientation caused by the combination of an applied dc field and the dc space charge field induced by the impinging optical field. The refractive index change is a Kerr-like phenomena, and is quadratically defendant on the electric field strength present, unlike the usual [linear] photorefractive effect. To generate such orientational photorefractive effect in aligned nematic liquid crystal films, the applied dc field strengths are on the order of 100 V/cm.
