An electro-optical
crystal electro-optical factor measure method and device comprises the following steps: a
laser with visible wave bands passes a polarizing lens, a
ground glass, a to be tested electro-optical
crystal and a polarization analyzer in sequence, and a white screen receives an exit
light spot and an interference pattern formed by
diffusion light caused by the
ground glass; a polarization direction of the polarizing lens and the polarization analyzer is vertical, and an adjustable
DC voltage is applied to the to be tested electro-optical
crystal; firstly, select a property
laser entrance angle ([theta]0, [phi]0) through
theory analysis, wherein the ([theta]0, [phi]0) refer to angles between an entrance
laser propagation direction and each electric induction main shaft of the to be tested electro-optical crystal; in measurement, the
DC voltage applied to the to be tested electro-optical crystal is adjusted to OV, an angle between the to be tested electro-optical crystal and the entrance laser is tuned, so the exit
light spot can fall on a
dark zone, corresponding to the
entrance angle ([theta]0, [phi]0), in the interference pattern; the
DC voltage is gradually boosted and the exit
light spot position in the process does not change, and the interference pattern will change; when the exit light spot fall on next adjacent
dark zone on the interference pattern again, the DC
voltage value U is recorded; the corresponding electro-optical factor can be obtained through theory calculation.
