For measuring electromagnetic
field, a sensor using a Ti:LiNbO3 integrated
optics has several advantages of small size, fast
frequency response and minimum perturbation for
the field to be measured. Using a novel retroreflective
type of Mach-Zehnder waveguide modulator, two small-sized
( 43×16×10 mm, 43×45×10 mm )
electric field sensors have been developed. These
sensors were found to have wide dynamic ranges (
0.01-1000 V/m, 0.6-300 V/m ) and wide frequency
band widths ( 30 Hz - 100 kHz, 30 MHz - 1 GHz ).
