Dynamic viscoelasticity and dynamic birefringence of a microgel system were investigated around the liquid–solid transition concentration to clarify the molecular origin of the viscoelastic response of the microgel system. The complex modulus showed viscoelastic liquid-like behavior at concentrations,c, below a thresholdcjammingfor random close packing of the microgels, whereas viscoelastic solid-like behavior atc>cjamming. The imaginary part of the complex strain-optical coefficient changed its sign with increasing angular frequency ω in a liquid-like regime, suggesting that the stress and birefringence involved three relaxation mechanisms. Utilizing the stress-optical rule, SOR, for each relaxation process, the complex shear modulus atc<cjammingwas separated into the orientational stress of network strands in temporary contacted microgels, deformation of particle, and the redistribution process, from high frequencies in this order. On the other hand, in a solid-like regime atc>cjamming, the ordinary SOR held well with a single stress-optical coefficient,C, implying that only one stress origin is dominant, which can be attributed to the orientational stress of densely packed microgels in permanent contact. The strain-optical coefficients evaluated using the Onuki–Doi theory reproduced the measurements qualitatively and supported these assignments.
