A terahertz linear polarizer was developed using a single crystal of methyl 4-nitrobenzoate. Flat molecules are arranged in parallel in the crystal and the intramolecular vibrations efficiently absorb terahertz waves with high anisotropy. Several infrared-active intramolecular vibrations with parallel moments of transition concentrate in a frequency band between 2.2 and 3.2 THz. The highest degree of polarization of 76% was achieved at 2.74 THz (Tmax= 80%,Tmin= 11%). This result establishes a new category of polarizer that can be manufactured in a simple process at low cost.
