Optical phase shifting with acousto-optic devices.
A novel optical phase-shifting method based on a well-known acousto-optic interaction is proposed. By using a pair of acousto-optic modulators (AOMs) and properly aligning them, we construct an optical phase shifter that can directly control the phase of a collimated beam. The proposed phase shifter is insensitive to the polarization of the incident beam when polarization-insensitive AOMs are u...
متن کاملAcousto-optical multiple interference devices
We present a new concept for waveguide acousto-optical devices based on coupled Mach–Zehnder interferometers driven by acoustic waves. These acousto-optical multiple interference devices use the periodic refractive index modulation induced by the acoustic wave to realize functionalities such as ON/OFF switching for an arbitrary time interval, as well as for efficient light modulation at high ha...
متن کاملApplications of In – Fiber Acousto – Optic Devices
Nowadays, in-fiber acousto-optic devices are increasingly used as frequency shifters, multiplexers, modulators, and tunable filters. They can be easily spliced into optical fiber systems, and the consequent low insertion loss, make them an attractive alternative to bulk optics devices. Our group, established at the Institute of Materials Science, Department of Applied Physics, of the Valencia U...
متن کاملAcousto-optic-assisted diffuse optical tomography.
We introduce and experimentally demonstrate acousto-optic-assisted diffuse optical tomography (DOT) using a holography-based acousto-optic setup. The method is based on probing a scattering medium with a localized acoustical modulation of the phase of the scattered light. The optical properties of the scattering medium are recovered with ultrasound-limited resolution by applying DOT reconstruct...
متن کاملAcousto-optic laser optical feedback imaging.
We present a photon noise and diffraction-limited imaging method combining an imaging laser and ultrasonic waves. The laser optical feedback imaging (LOFI) technique is an ultrasensitive imaging method for imaging objects through or embedded within a scattering medium. However, LOFI performances are dramatically limited by parasitic optical feedback occurring in the experimental setup. In this ...
