At the superconducting linac of FLASH at DESY, we have installed an electro-optic experiment for single shot, non-destructive measurements of the longitudinal electric charge distribution of individual electron bunches. The profile of the electric bunch field is electro-optically encoded onto a stretched Ti:Sa laser pulse. In the decoding step, the profile is retrieved from a cross-correlation of the encoded pulse with a 35 fs laser pulse, obtained from the same laser. At FLASH, sub-100 fs electron bunches have been measured during FEL operation with a resolution of better than 50 fs. The electro-optic encoding process in gallium phosphide as well as the decoding step in a frequency doubling BBO crystal were numerically simulated using bunch shapes simultaneously measured with a transverse-deflecting rf structure as input data. In this contribution, we present electro-optically measured profiles and compare them with the simulation.
