  • Patent number: 9568506
    Abstract: The present application discloses electric field measurement device for measuring electric field of a target. Electric field measurement device includes optical waveguide which transmits transmission light, electrode portion, which gives optical characteristics of optical waveguide periodic variation, antenna for setting first state, in which electric field is coupled to optical waveguide, and second state, in which electric field is disconnected from optical waveguide, detector which detects light intensity of emission light emitted from optical waveguide, and applicator which applies voltage to electrode portion to give periodic variation. Applicator includes setting portion, which sets reference voltage in correspondence to light intensity under the second state, and output portion, which outputs voltage in correspondence to difference between reference voltage and induced voltage happening to electrode portion under first state.
