Optical Rotatory Power ofl-Menthol in Heavy Methyl Alcohol

The Optical Rotatory Power of Heat-denatured Egg Albumin

Atomic partition of the optical rotatory power of methylhydroperoxide.

We applied a methodology capable of resolving the optical rotatory power into atomic contributions. The individual atomic contributions to the optical rotatory power and molecular chirality of the methylhydroperoxide are obtained via a canonical transformation of the Hamiltonian by which the electric dipolar moment operator is transformed to the acceleration gauge formalism and the magnetic dip...

Optical rotatory power of polymer-stabilized blue phase liquid crystals

Macroscopically, a polymer-stabilized blue phase liquid crystal (BPLC) is assumed to be an optically isotropic medium. Our experiment challenges this assumption. Our results indicate that the optical rotatory power (ORP) of some nano-scale double-twist cylinders in a BPLC composite causes the polarization axis of the transmitted light to rotate a small angle, which in turn leaks through the cro...

Quantum optical rotatory dispersion

The phenomenon of molecular optical activity manifests itself as the rotation of the plane of linear polarization when light passes through chiral media. Measurements of optical activity and its wavelength dependence, that is, optical rotatory dispersion, can reveal information about intricate properties of molecules, such as the three-dimensional arrangement of atoms comprising a molecule. Giv...

Optical Rotatory Dispersion of Catalase.

It is well recognized that the measurements of optical rotatory dispersion of proteins with strong absorption bands are extremely difficult because of the diminishing intensity of the emergent light. Until very recently, these studies were made possible only by improving the light source and also frequently by a wide opening of the slit width on the monochromator at the expense of spectral puri...
