We have performed magnetooptical measurements of β′′-(BEDT-TTF)(TCNQ) using a cavity perturbation technique with a millimeter vector network analyzer (MVNA) and a 14 T superconducting magnet at IMR, Tohoku University. The results of ADMRO and SdH measurements at low temperatures are not consistent with the band calculation result. Therefore, we are interested in Fermi surfaces at low temperatures and have performed magnetooptical measurements of β′′-(BEDT-TTF)(TCNQ). Although the band calculation and ADMRO results suggest the existence of Q1D FS, our results suggest the existence of Q2D FS only. From the results of magnetooptical measurements, we discuss the FS topology of this system at low temperatures.
