Novel polythiophenes which exhibit strong main chain absorption in the ultraviolet to visible region, show optical activity depending on the polymeric chain alone, and comprise as repeating units thiophene rings containing chiral substituent groups, and are represented by the following general formula: (wherein R1 and R2 are the same or different, each representing a hydrogen atom or an organic group, of which at least one is an enantiopure alkyl group with a branch structure at the beta-position, and n represents the number of repeating units selected from 10 to 100,000).
