Abstract
Electron in a quasi one-dimensional NbSe3 whisker crystal form a collective state at low temperature. It is called charge density wave (CDW) state. Under certain condition, NbSe3 grows as a ring crystal with closed loop structure [1]. This kind of global structural change brings an effect on a formation of the collective state [2]. For observation of a global electronic property on the entire ring crystal, it is necessary to apply a probe method appropriate for the closed loop structure of a ring crystal. The light with a polarization of a closed loop structure, called a polarization vortex, is appropriate for this measurement.
