title: Optical anisotropy of zinc-blende semiconductors in an electric field
abstract: A theory of optical anisotropy for zinc-blende semiconductors in an electric field is derived by extending the formalism of Luttinger and Kohn [Phys. Rev. 97, 869 (1955)] to higher order. This resolves a recent controversy over the correct form of the Hamiltonian for the degenerate valence bands.
