Abstract
A Pockels cell utilizes high-voltage pulses for a polarization adjustment of electromagnetic radiation passing through the crystal, in particular laser radiation. The polarization adjustment involves applying a sequence of useful voltage pulses (N) to the crystal, each having a useful period duration (TP, N) and a useful pulse width (TN), and induces birefringence of the crystal via electric polarization in the crystal for polarization adjustment of the electromagnetic radiation. A sequence of compensation pulses (K, K1, K2) are applied to the crystal, each having a voltage curve, wherein the sequence is temporally overlaid by the sequence of useful voltage pulses (N) so that the voltage curves of the compensation pulses (K, K1, K2) counteract the inducing of a mechanical vibration in the crystal of the Pockels cell by the useful voltage pulses (N).
