Abstract :
THz time-domain spectrum of the Na3La9B8O27(NLBO) crystal had been measured. The absorption spectrum and other optical constants had been gained through Fourier transform. The absorption coefficient alpha(omega) is less than 20/cm from 0.1 to 3.0 THz. With the increasing of the frequency, the refractive index n(omega) and the real of dielectric constant epsiv1(omega) steadily and monotonically increase. The n(omega) changes from 3.55 to 3.78, and the epsiv1(omega) changes from 12.7 to 14.2. The imaginary of dielectric constant epsiv2(omega) is less than 0.1 from 0.5 to 2.0 THz.
