Abstract: The criteria for chiral doublet bands obtained by assuming one proton (neutron) particle and one neutron (proton) hole sitting in a corresponding high-j shell coupled to a triaxial rotor with γ=30° have been summarized. Two representative cases in A~100 odd-odd nuclei, nearly degenerate ΔI=1 doublet bands in 104Rh and 106Rh are checked against these chiral criteria. It is shown that 106Rh possesses better chiral geometry than 104Rh, although the energy near degeneracy is achieved in 104Rh in comparison with the constant energy separation of doublet bands in 106Rh.
