Abstract

The electro-optical birefringence technique has required generation of very high voltage pulses (4kV) strictly adjustable in duration with 4 ns field cut-off duration. The multiple reflection cell designed increases the birefringence of the polarized laser beam. An optimal number of reflections is found by theory and experiment. A computer provides a pure signal curve from a signal initially embedded in electrical noise. The statistical method employed consist of making the signal variance (and the time variance) a minimum. We have found a correlation coefficient equals to 0.99. So, the reliability of the relaxation curve is strongly stressed.
