Frequency and angular bandwidth of acousto-optic deflectors with ultrasonic walk-off.

چکیده
In the paper, bandwidth parameters of acousto-optical deflectors (AODs) are analyzed from the point of view of acoustical anisotropy. Equations for bandwidth and central frequency of AOD are derived for arbitrary propagation direction of ultrasound in optically uniaxial crystals. The phenomenon of bandwidth shift due to phase mismatch at the central frequency is studied theoretically and verified experimentally.

Influence of acoustic energy walk-off on acousto-optic diffraction characteristics.
Influence of acoustic beam energy walk-off on characteristics of Bragg diffraction of light is studied theoretically and experimentally by the example of a paratellurite single crystal. Two cases of isotropic and anisotropic light scattering are examined. Angular and frequency characteristics of acousto-optic interaction are calculated in wide ranges of Bragg angles and ultrasound frequencies b...
متن کاملBeam Deflectors for Magneto-Optical Recording Heads
Nonmechanical beam deflectors, particularly acousto-optical and electro-optical deflectors, are being considered for the access and tracking functions of a magneto-optic recording head. In this report, the suitability of electro-optic deflectors for these functions is explored. For applications requiring modest deflection, electro.optic deflectors require less power and exhibit higher optical t...

The development of opt electronic technology in the past two decades has intensified research on devices that control and manipulate optical radiation. Acousto-optic devices are based on acousto-optic effects in which the optical medium is altered by the presence of ultrasound. Examples of acousto-optic devices include optical modulators, deflectors, scanners, Q-switches, isolators, and frequen...
متن کاملAn FPGA based Frequency Synthesiser for Acousto-Optic Lens Control
There is an increasing interest in the application of two photon microscopy in biology research. Current two-photon microscopes, which use galvanometer mirrors to steer the laser beam and build up an image, are too slow to monitor many fast spatially distributed physiological processes, such as neural activity. This paper describes the development of a system capable of generating the necessary...
متن کاملMathematical consideration of Phase-Matching bandwidth, effective nonlinear coefficient and the walk-off effect for LiGa(SexS1-x)2 nonlinear crystals by using Genetic algorithm
In this paper the Phase-Matching bandwidth, effective nonlinear coefficient and the walk-off angle within the effective bandwidth of the LiGa(SexS1-x)2 biaxial nonlinear crystals are calculated using the Genetic algorithm (GA). This calculation is held for all tree principle XY, YZ and XZ planes individually. The results are shown the accuracy of the applied algorithm is quite qualified.
