| Research Abstract |
A model of living cells proposed by Frohlich leads to a unified understanding of the order and high efficiency in biological functions. Nevertheless, the validity of the model has not been verified for several decades. The essence of the model is the existence of a coherent longitudinal electric mode in a terahertz frequency range in living cells. The purpose of this study is to verify the essence by use of generation and detection techniques of intense terahertz electric waves and reverse micelles that are regarded as a model system of cells. To that end, a spectroscopy system has been developed and its application to reverse micelles is in progress. On the other hand, the physical properties of reverse micelles have been studies, and phase transition-like changes and water shedding from the reverse micelle have been found.
