Abstract

Measurements of the angular divergence of optical second harmonic generation in rat-tail tendon reveal a very narrow forward peak. This implies the existence of coherent order and, together with the demonstration of nonlinear susceptibility components d₃₃ and d₃₂, confirms prior indications that the tendon is polar. Some biological consequences of this polarity are considered.
