Abstract :
A circular dichroism polarimeter (CDP) with an attenuated total reflection element for study of strongly absorbing substances and NovoFEL as a monochromatic source of THz radiation has been developed. Polarimetric characteristics of polysaccharide enantiomers have been studied for the device performance testing.
