Abstract

Terahertz (THz) time-domain spectroscopy (TDS) has been applied to investigate liquid’s optical property in recent years. However, comprehensive discussion of how to compute liquids’ complex refractive indices and absorption rates are seldom reported. So, in this work, we try to find a way to compute liquids’ optical property accurately and conveniently.
