Sample cell for polarimetry, polarimeter, and polarimetric method

摘要

A sample cell for polarimetry is disclosed. It comprises. a base member (2) having a tubular cavity (3) for holding a specimen and for permitting a light to transmit therethrough, and a pair of light-transmitting windows (4) for sealing a pair of open ends of the cavity; and a coil (5) arranged around the base member (2) for generating a magnetic field inside the cavity (3) along an axial direction of the cavity. The specimen is supplied to the cavity through a channel for communicating the cavity with the outside.
