This invention has as its object to provide a voltage measurement apparatus which has a compact probe unit, and which can perform a measurement in a non-contact manner. The voltage measurement apparatus includes detection means for detecting an electric field generated in a space by a voltage applied to the surface of a device to be measured, light-emitting means for modulating output light by superposing a detected signal obtained from the detection means on a bias current which is supplied to inductively radiate the output light, a constant current source for supplying the bias current to the light-emitting means, extraction means for extracting a signal component of the output light from the light-emitting means, and light-transmission means for guiding the output light from the light-emitting means to the extraction means, and measures the applied voltage to the surface of the device to be measured by bringing the detection means close to the device to be measured in a non-contact manner.

Polarized light pulses are applied to an optical modulator including an electrooptic crystal. A polarization state of the applied light is changed in accordance with a voltage of an electrical signal applied to the optical modulator. A polarization interferometer receives the light output from the optical modulator, and generates an interference fringe on the input surface of a photodetector such as a one-dimensional CCD. A processing device calculates a pitch and a movement distance of the interference fringe, based on an output signal of the photodetector, to determine the voltage. A waveform of the electrical signal is determined by sampling the electrical signal with multiple light pulses, while varying a phase relationship between the electrical signal and the light pulses.

An optical converter is so arranged that light to be measured and probe light are made to interact with each other on a nonlinear element and that mixed light produced by the interaction is detected, which is characterized in that an energy amount of interacting signal light is kept as high as possible without spatial expansion of signal light, which could lower the SN ratio. For this, the time-space conversion function is achieved by a method for producing the probe light. Namely, the optical converter comprises (a) a nonlinear element for making two types of light interact with each other to cause the nonlinear optical effect, (b) a device for guiding light to be measured to the nonlinear element, and (c) a device for producing probe light crossing the light to be measured on the nonlinear element and changing a traveling direction of probe light with change of crossing time. A light waveform measuring apparatus or an optical serial-parallel converter may be attained by adding to the optical converter (d) a device for detecting mixed light produced by the interaction between the signal light and the probe light on the nonlinear element.

An object of this invention is to provide a pulsed laser beam source device which is easy to handle and is operative stably. Pumping light is irradiated to a laser medium from a light source for optical pumping. The stimulated laser medium pumps radiation of a set wavelength. This radiation is stimulated to be amplified while reciprocating between resonator mirrors. A multi layer film is inserted in an optical path of the radiation. Feeble light of the radiation from the laser medium is absorbed by the multi-layer to be weaker, and that part of the radiation having intensities above a set intensity is compressed in terms of time to be emitted outside. The emitted radiation has a very short pulse duration.

When sampling light and light to be measured each having a wavelength longer than an upper wavelength limit of the sensitivity of a photocathode are incident on the photocathode of a multiphoton absorption-type electron tube, light-light sampling is enabled by two-photon absorption and one-photoelectron emission. A delaying unit adjusts an incident timing of the sampling light from an optical pulse generating unit on the elctron tube in synchronism with an incident timing of the light to be measured on the electron tube. A half mirror causes the sampling light and the light to be measured to coincide on the photocathode of the electron tube. A controlling unit controls the delaying unit to sequentially shift the incident timing of the sampling light on the electron tube. Thus, the operation of a display unit can be controlled in synchronism with the incident timing of the sampling light so that a series of sampling outputs from the electron tube can be converted to the optical waveform of the light to be measured and displayed on the display unit.
