Abstract :
It has been found that the sensitivity of the terahertz attenuated total reflection spectroscopy was enhanced five times by using a metallic mesh. Using this method, reflectances of various ionic solutions were measured. As a result of measurement, hydrated states of ionic molecules were evaluated.
