Prediction of the angle of rotation to be caused by optical rotation phenomenon in optical active materials and observation of resultant changes in visible colors of transmitting light beams

Demonstration tools for changes in visible colors of transmitting light beams to be caused by optical rotation in syrup as optical active material and their predictions

“…Predictions are performed by means of the authors' established theoretical mathematical expressions for calculating the angle of rotation or rotation power for a specific optical active material with respect to any wavelengths of light beams to be transmitted therein. Detailed explanations can be found in References [6][7].…”

“…Fig. 1 shows the small-sized demonstration tool prepared by the authors [7]. Specifically, a tubular container was provided from an acrylic tube (with an inner diameter of 5 cm) with its one end being sealed with an acrylic plate.…”

“…The authors successfully realized theoretical predictions of the visible color changes in the phenomenon with sugared water [5][6] and then commercially-available syrup [7] being used as optical active material. In this paper, some results of the predicted visible colors and actually observed results are presented.…”
