A voltage generation circuit (20) is provided which generates a voltage. A voltage application circuit (30) is provided which has electrodes (11, 12) which are fed a respective voltage for causing creation of an instantaneous high electric field in a region of interest as a target such as a living body tissue or cell. The voltage application circuit (30) is high-impedanced for excitation of a free resonant circuit including the target. It is arranged such that the relative position of the target with respect to one of the electrodes (11, 12) is adjustable.
