  • Abstract
    The absorption properties of three kinds of oriented collagen sheet were measured in a terahertz band. We verified that the absorbance spectra of the three kinds of collagen agreed well, even though the amino acid composition differed. When salt was added to the collagen sheets, a new absorption peak appeared at 168 cm-1.
