Abstract
The use of an electro-optic crystal as phase-stepping device in a digi tal speckle interferometer is discussed. Phase stepping is introduced by varying the external voltage applied to the crystal. The crystal ca libration procedure is outlined and errors are discussed. Experimental results compared to those obtained with a piezo-electrically driven m irror are presented.
