Abstract
We propose a technique for the measurement of Stokes parameters of terahertz radiation in terahertz timeβdomain spectroscopy (THzβTDS). In this technique, a rotatable wireβgrid THz polarizer is placed in front of a twoβcontact photoconductive THz detector. Stokes parameters can be measured by making two temporal scans corresponding to two angles of the polarizer. We theoretically demonstrate that the two angles can be β45Β° and 45Β° for achieving the statistically best measurement accuracy in a single test. Β© 2010 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

## Abstract Using terahertz timeβdomain spectroscopy (THzβTDS), we have investigated the THz spectra of astaxanthin and riboflavin and the spectra of two kinds of cell, haenatcoccus plusivalis and bacillus subtilis, which could produce astaxanthin and riboflavin, respectively, during their metaboli
The low-energy excitations in glasses were studied by the terahertz time-domain spectroscopy (THz-TDS). The coherent THz radiation by a femto-second pulse laser enables the determination of the real and the imaginary parts of complex dielectric constants in the frequency range between 0.3 and 2.4 TH
