Description
Intense electric field ∼1010-1011 V/cm in crystal has been known for a long time and has wide applications. We study the conversion of axion-like light particle and photon in the intense electric field in crystal. We find that the conversion of axion-like particle and photon happens for energy larger than keV range. We propose search of axion-like light particle using the intense crystalline field. We discuss the solar axion search experiment and a variety of shining-through-wall experiment using crystalline field. Due to the intense crystalline field which corresponds to magnetic field ∼104-105 Tesla these experiments are very interesting. In particular these experiments can probe the mass range of axion-like particle from eV to keV.
