中文摘要 | Terahertz time-domain spectroscopy (THz-TDS) is used to study the spectral response of lithium niobate crystals (LiNbO3) in the far infrared region. The optical constants are derived from the measured complex refractive index. A giant birefringence is observed in this material, and the average refractive-index difference between the ordinary wave and the extraordinary wave, n(o) - n(c), can reach up to about 1.6. Such a large birefringence is attributed to the different phonon modes of A(1)(z) and E (x, y). This unusual property makes LiNbO3 a promising material to be used as a functional material in the terahertz region, e.g. employed as wave-plates and polarization separators. |
