The present invention measures a quantity of attachment (such as density) of a material (such as catalyst and promoter) attached to a carrier. A carrier 1 includes attachment holes 12 to which a catalyst 24 attaches, and non-attachment holes 14 to which the catalyst 24 does not attach, where extension directions of the attachment holes 12 and the non-attachment holes 14 are parallel with each other (perpendicular to a first end surface 1a), and are opened on the first end surface 1a and a second end surface 1b. An attachment quantity measurement device includes an electromagnetic wave output device 2 that outputs a terahertz wave at a frequency equal to or more than 0.01 [THz] and equal to or less than 100 [THz] toward the carrier 1, an electromagnetic wave detector 4 that detects the terahertz wave which has transmitted through the carrier 1, a reference value deriving unit 7 that derives, based on a result detected by the electromagnetic wave detector 4, any one of an absorption rate, a group delay, and a dispersion of the terahertz wave in the non-attachment holes 14, and an attachment quantity deriving unit 8 that derives, based on the result detected by the electromagnetic wave detector 4 and the result derived by the reference value deriving unit 7, a weight or a density of the catalyst 24 present in the attachment holes 12. |
