Abstract :
An optical sensor for measurement of high electric field intensity by means of the electro-optic effect in single-crystal bismuth silicon oxide has been successfully developed and the fundamental characteristics measured. By use of this sensor, the electric field intensities between parallel and coaxial electrodes have been measured.
