Abstract

A voltage detector comprises a light modulator which employs an electro-optic material whose refractive index changes according to the voltage developing in an object to be measured. A transparent anti-reflection film having a refractive index and thickness which are predetermined on the bases of a refractive index of the electro-optic material and a wavelength of incident light is formed on both light entrance and exit surfaces of the electro-optic material.
