Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

An electromagnetic field measuring apparatus capable of measuring an electromagnetic field for a minuscule area in which electronic devices are densely packed with a high sensitivity is provided. In an electromagnetic field measuring apparatus according to the present invention, the amplitude level of signal light (pf) is adjusted by the analyzer ( 34 ) by adjusting its angle with respect to the plane of polarization of the signal light (pf) based on an amplitude level control signal (eb) supplied from the calculation control unit ( 40 ). An amplitude level control signal (eb) is supplied from the calculation control unit ( 40 ) to the analyzer ( 34 ) based on the spectrum (ea) of an electric signal (ed) measured by an RF spectrum analyzer ( 39 ). The amplitude level ration between the carrier and the sideband contained in the signal light (ph) incident on the optical receiver ( 38 ) is controlled to a fixed value.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

The invention claimed is: 1. An electromagnetic field measuring apparatus comprising: a laser light source that emits a laser beam having a predetermined frequency as a carrier signal light; a light modulator that generates a modulated light by modulating the carrier signal light at a predetermined local oscillation frequency, and emitting the modulated light; a certain optical component; an electromagnetic field sensor that generates a signal light by exposing the modulated…
