| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We developed a theoretical and numerical scheme for the elucidation of the optical properties of periodic ordered structures of soft matter, whose periodicity is of the order of a few hundred nanometers. We particularly focused on various structures exhibited by a chiral liquid crystal without mirror symmetry. By combining the above-mentioned scheme with numerical calculation of ordered structures by continuum theory, we obtained results that account almost perfectly for experimental results on various optical properties including optical microscope images and the dependence of reflection intensity on the incident angle and the polarization of the incident light.
