Non-disturbing electric field sensor using piezoelectric and converse piezoelectric resonances

Abstract

This invention relates to an electric field sensor for near field measurement. The electric field sensor of the present invention uses both piezoelectric and converse piezoelectric resonances. Composed of no metallic parts, the probe of the sensor minimizes field disturbance. The most distinguished feature of this probe is that a signal is transmitted outside neither electrically nor optically, but mechanically.
