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.

The molecular nanoclusters proved to be very promising objects for applications in electronics not only because they have absolutely identical chemical structure and allow for bottom to top approach in constructing new electronic devices, but also for the possibility to design and create great variety of such clusters with specific properties. The formation and deposition of mixed Langmuir monolayers composed of inert amphiphile molecular matrix and guest ligand-stabilized metal-core nanoclusters are described. This approach allowed to obtain the ordered stable reproducible planar monolayer and multilayer nanocluster nanostructures on solid substrates. The use of novel polymeric Langmuir monolayers formed by amphiphilic polyelectrolytes and nanoclusters resulted in fabrication of ultimately thin monomolecular nanoscale-ordered stable planar polymeric nanocomposite films. The morphology and electron transport in fabricated nanostructures were studied experimentally using AFM and STM. The effects of single electron tunneling at room temperature through molecular cluster object containing finite number of localized states were theoretically investigated taking into account electron–electron Coulomb interaction. It is shown that tunnel current-bias voltage characteristic of such tunnel junction is characterized by a number of staircase steps equal to the number of cluster's eigenlevels, however the fronts of each steps are asymptotically linear with finite inclination. The analytically obtained current–voltage characteristics are in agreement with experimental results for electron tunneling through molecular nanoclusters at room temperatures.
