Abstract
We report on measurements of the refractive indices and the absorption in bulk single crystals of aluminum nitride, in the region from 1 to 8 THz. The birefringence is approximately 0.2 and is larger than in the optical frequency range. Both indices exhibit normal dispersion with no pronounced absorption resonances. Optical power loss coefficients are approximately 2 cm−1 and 4 cm−1 and the estimated static dielectric constants are 7.84 and 9.22, for the ordinary and extraordinary polarization, respectively.
