Three-dimensional electric-field vector measurement with an electro-optic sensing technique.

چکیده
A new technique for three-dimensional (3D) electric-field (e-field) vector measurement is presented. Three laser beams with different propagation paths in an electro-optic (EO) crystal were used to resolve 3D components of e-field vectors. We adopted a special geometric shape of bismuth silicon oxide EO crystal so that the three beams would propagate within it. A sensitivity of 0.6 V/cm square root Hz was achieved. A commercial Ansoft Maxwell 3D field simulator was also used to verify our measurements.

Two-Dimensional Electric-Field Vector Measurement by a LiTaO(3) electro-optic probe tip.
An electro-optic probe tip that is made from LiTaO crystal to make tangentially two-dimensional electric-field (E-field) vector measurements is presented. We combine a new electro-optic modulation technique and a conventional one to resolve the two E-field components. The new modulation effect on the optical probing beam is caused by rotation of the principal axis the electro-optic crystal, whi...
متن کاملComparative Study of Theoretical Kerr Electro-optic Fringe Patterns in 2-D and Axisymmetric Electrode Geometries
Kerr electro-optic fringe patterns have long been used to study space charge injection and transport phenomena in highly birefringent materials such as nitrobenzene. Most past experimental work has been limited to 1 or 2-dimensional geometries where the electric field magnitude and direction have been constant along the light path such as two concentric or parallel cylinders or parallel plate e...
متن کاملSingle Shot Longitudinal Bunch Profile Measurements at Flash Using Electro-optic Techniques
For the high-gain operation of a SASE FEL, extremely short electron bunches are essential to generate sufficiently high peak currents. At the superconducting linac of FLASH at DESY, we have installed an electro-optic experiment with temporal decoding and spectral decoding to probe the time structure of the electric field of single sub-200 fs electron bunches. In this technique, the fieldinduced...
متن کاملElectro-magneto-thermo-mechanical Behaviors of a Radially Polarized FGPM Thick Hollow Sphere
In this study an analytical method is developed to obtain the response of electro-magneto-thermo-elastic stress and perturbation of a magnetic field vector for a thick-walled spherical functionally graded piezoelectric material (FGPM). The hollow sphere, which is placed in a uniform magnetic field, is subjected to a temperature gradient, inner and outer pressures and a constant electric potenti...
متن کاملElectric field and temperature measurement using ultra wide bandwidth pigtailed electro-optic probes.
We present pigtailed electro-optic probes that allow a simultaneous measurement of high frequency electric fields and temperature using a unique laser probe beam. This has been achieved by the development of a novel probe design associated with a fully automated servo-controlled optical bench, initially developed to stabilize the electric field sensor response. The developed electro-optic probe...
