Where to Buy Electro-optic Modulators

Before You Buy: Learn About Electro-optic Modulators

Electro-optic modulators can be used as fast intensity or phase modulators in laser devices, optical metrology, and communications. They exploit the electro-optic effect to achieve high-speed modulation capabilities.

electro-optic modulators

With the introduction of the OM6N series of high-speed optical modulators, Thorlabs has designed and manufactured a new all-reflective technology based on deformable mirrors for modulating laser power in the 700 – 1350 nm range. This Pockels cell or AOM alternative introduces nearly zero dispersion to ultrafast laser pulses. This solution extends Thorlabs’ existing collection of adaptive optics and EO modulators.

electro-optic modulators

Raicol Crystals offers electro-optic modulators based on RTP (with a temperature compensating design) or BBO.

Besides, we can supply super-polished LBO crystals which can be used as the center piece of an electro-optic modulator. With its high resistance to laser-induced damage, LBO is very suitable for high-power applications, and its transparency range is large (160 nm – 2600 nm). We offer highly homogeneous crystals with up to 100 × 100 mm2 and very low bulk absorption.
