Abstract

An electro-optic sampling probe for preventing noise from being transmitted to photodiodes and improving the measurement accuracy is disclosed. In the probe, the optical system module comprises wavelength plates and polarized beam splitters arranged along an optical path of the relevant laser beam, and photodiodes facing the polarized beam splitters, wherein each photodiode is fixed via an insulating material to the main frame of the optical system module.
