Abstract
A total reflection spectroscopic measurement device includes a terahertz wave generation unit, an internal total reflection prism, a detection unit configured to detect the terahertz wave, an electric field vector measurement unit configured to measure an electric field vector of the terahertz wave, and an analysis unit configured to acquire information about an optical constant of the object to be measured. Proportions of S polarization component and P polarization component of the terahertz wave are constant. The analysis unit acquires the information about the optical constant on the basis of a ratio between S polarization component and P polarization component of the measured electric field vector when the object is not arranged on the total reflection surface and a ratio between S polarization component and P polarization component of the measured electric field vector when the object is arranged on the total reflection surface.
