摘要
The frequency-dependent optical and dielectric properties of annealed ZnO nanoparticles in the range of 0.1 to 0.9 THz are studied by using terahertz time-domain spectroscopy(THz-TDS).The refractive index,power absorption and complex dielectric constants are obtained and the experimental results are well fit with a simple effective medium theory in conjunction with a pseudo-harmonic model.This study reveals that annealed ZnO nanoparticles exhibit the similar phonon response characteristics to the single ZnO crystal and other ZnO nanostructures,such as tetrapods and nanowires.
