Abstract

See full text

A method for determining the presence of an electrical charge on a surface of an ophthalmic lens mold including the steps of exposing a sensor crystal of a sensor element to a surface of an ophthalmic lens mold on which an electrical charge generating an electrical field may be present, converting a light beam emitted from a laser light source into a linearly polarized measurement light beam by passing the light beam through the sensor element, processing the linearly polarized measurement light beam exiting the sensor element in a measurement unit, wherein the sensor crystal is selected from a non-centrosymmetrical crystallographic point group 43 m.
