Where to Buy Acousto-optic Modulators

GWU's assortment of acousto-optical components covers all kind of Q-switches, modulators, deflectors and frequency shifters for various applications. The acousto-optical modulators (AOM) can be configured in flexible design, free-space or fiber-coupled and can be equipped with suitable driving electronics.

Our acousto-optic modulators are optimized for low scatter and high laser damage threshold. Rise time, modulation rate, beam diameter, and power handling needs of the application need to be understood in order to identify the best acousto-optic modulator and RF driver solution.

We also offer fiber-coupled acousto-optic modulators.

SHIPS TODAY: These fiber-coupled acousto-optic modulators (AOM) are designed to offer an optimal solution for amplitude modulation of laser light in a single mode optical fiber. They are offered for wavelengths between 750 nm and 1750 nm (most models are in stock). These fiber AOM’s are easy to use and offer direct control of the timing, intensity, and temporal shape of the laser output down to a few nanoseconds.

A fiber-coupled AOM requires an RF driver. AeroDIODE offers a range of RF drivers configured for either digital input (TTL) or analog input configurations. Additionally, the AeroDIODE TOMBAK pulse picker synchronization tool is offered for complex synchronization applications such as pulse-picking a mode locked laser.
