Abstract

Cette invention concerne un instrument de mesure optique qui peut passer de la détection de la lumière transmise à la détection de la lumière reflétée, moyennant une configuration simple, et peut mesurer avec précision une propriété physique par modification de l'angle incident de la lumière térahertz rendue incidente selon le type de l'échantillon, ainsi qu'un procédé de mesure optique. L'instrument de mesure optique comprend : une source de lumière térahertz (4) qui émet une lumière pulsée dans la région de fréquence térahertz ; un détecteur de lumière (8) pour détecter la lumière pulsée ; et deux paires de groupes de miroirs (10a, 10b) utilisées pour guider la lumière pulsée émise par la source de lumière térahertz (4) vers un échantillon (6) qui doit être mesuré et pour guider la lumière transmise par l'échantillon (6) ou la lumière réfléchie sur l'échantillon (6) vers le détecteur de lumière (8), comprenant au moins deux miroirs ou plus, agencés en des positions symétriques autour de l'échantillon (6). L'angle incident de la lumière pulsée émise par la source de lumière térahertz (4) par rapport à l'échantillon (6) est modifié par modification des positions et des angles des deux paires de groupes de miroirs (10a,10b).
