The three‐dimensional optical technique has been applied to analysis of the experimental results related to magnetic wave scattering phenomena. Recently, we have developed an ideal equation for analyzing the three‐dimensional transmittance character of light scattered due to many index ellipsoids. The index ellipsoids are arranged directly along the light axis in series. In this case, the index ellipsoid size and the gap distance between each index ellipsoid and neighbor one are considered as a calculation condition. By using an analysis equation devised by us, we have sought to determine the condition under which the light can be passed through many transparent mediums with high efficiency. From the numerical calculations, the condition for maximum transmittance of light 100% is obtained when a spherical and elliptic index ellipsoids are alternately arranged with respect to each other. © 2006 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
