It has been found that the irradiation with highly intense circularly polarized light (CPL) from an XeF (351 nm) laser can induce the enantiodifferentiation of racemic methionine with reasonable enantiocontrol by switching the sense of the CPL. Also, a similar result was obtained for threonine and it was newly revealed that the enantioenrichment is largely affected by the chemical structure, especially the functional groups, of α-amino acids, to cause photodecomposition such as decarboxylation and deamination. Furthermore, it was shown for the first time that the irradiation of a proline (Pro)-valine (Val) mixture with the CPL induces their enantioselective decomposition simultaneously, suggesting the occurrence of intermolecular interaction between Pro and Val.

Efficient circularly polarized luminescence (CPL) brightness from 4,4-diisopinocampheylBODIPY is detected for the first time. This finding demonstrates the workability of a new design, based on using chiral-pool derived chloro(diisopinocampheyl)borane, to...

Circular dichroism has been measured in the photoelectron diffraction of bulk W 4f photoelectrons from the W(110)(1×1) clean surface. The forward focusing peaks along the symmetric axis in the diffraction pattern showed an azimuthal rotation similar to those reported in a prior experiment on Si(001) and chemically shifted W 4f photoelectrons from the W(110)(1×1)-O surface. The emission angle dependence of the rotation angles has been measured and analyzed for the first time and the angles observed are in good agreement with those calculated using the formula Δ ϕ=m/kR sin 2θ derived previously by Daimon et al. [Jpn. J. Phys.32, L1480 (1993)] considering the angular dependence of m. This property gives a basis for the analysis of structure or various magnetic and electronic properties on surfaces.

Recently we have developed a form of polarization microscopy that forms images using optical properties that have previously been limited to macroscopic samples. This has given us a new window into the distribution of structure on a microscopic scale. We have coined the name differential polarization microscopy to identify the images obtained that are due to certain polarization dependent effects. Differential polarization microscopy has its origins in various spectroscopic techniques that have been used to study longer range structures in solution as well as solids. The differential scattering of circularly polarized light has been shown to be dependent on the long range chiral order, both theoretically and experimentally. The same theoretical approach was used to show that images due to differential scattering of circularly polarized light will give images dependent on chiral structures. With large helices (greater than the wavelength of light) the pitch and radius of the helix could be measured directly from these images.
