abstract = {By exploiting a Mach-Zehnder interferometer, the r33
electro-optic coefficient of erbium bulkdoped lithium niobate
crystals grown by Czochralski technique was measured depending on
the erbium content. The r33 coefficient decreases with the erbium
concentration. Such trend has been connected with both the
reduction of the lattice parameter, measured by high resolution
X-ray diffraction, and the increasing of the lattice defects.}
