Abstract

A surface-potential distribution measuring device includes: a laser light source; a Pockels crystal; a mirror; a photodetector that detects light intensity of the laser beam reflected by the mirror; a holding and mounting part that holds and moves the Pockels crystal; a voltage correction database; and a calculation unit that identifies an input voltage corresponding to a testing output voltage as a surface potential of the electric-field-reduction system. The Pockels crystal is formed in such a way that a size of a cross section of the Pockels crystal that is perpendicular to an axial direction changes along the axial direction. The holding and mounting part has a protection unit to protect a structure of the Pockels crystal, a movement unit to that moves the Pockels crystal in order to measure a surface potential of the electric-field-reduction system, and a drive control unit to control the movement unit.
