Abstract (in Japanese) (See Japanese page) 
(in English) It is well known that the electric polarization arises from the bend or spray distortion of the orientation. This phenomenon is called flexoelectric effect. Up to today, several kinds of measurement methods of the flexoelectric coefficient have been reported. However, the sign and/or the absolute value of the measured flexoelectric coefficient were different between the reports with regards to the common material. In this study, flexoelectric coefficient was investigated by the symmetric oblique incidence transmission Ellipsometry (SOITE). The state of polarization of the transmitted light through a hybrid aligned liquid crystal cell is changed by the applied DC electric field and the director reorientation. The outstanding feature of the SOITE is that the multiple reflection and multiple interference can be offset. We propose that the cell thickness and sum of the flexoelectric coefficients (e11+e33) can be obtained by experiment and numerical fitting procedure.
