Abstract:
This invention addresses the abovementioned problem, and the purpose of this invention is to provide a far-infrared spectroscopy device that uses an is-TPG method to generate far-infrared light, and is capable of efficiently detecting is-TPG light without a detection optical system being fine-tuned. Even if the far-infrared light incidence angles on an Si prism for detection are the same when far-infrared light having a first frequency is incident on a non-linear optical crystal for detection and when far-infrared light having a second frequency is incident on the non-linear optical crystal for detection, this far-infrared spectroscopy device adjusts the incidence surface angle of pump light in relation to the non-linear optical crystal for detection such that the angle of the far-infrared light in relation to the pump light within the non-linear optical crystal for detection can be appropriately set for each far-infrared light frequency (see FIG. 1A).
