Aom Fiber Optic Communication
The short rise time acousto-optic modulator (AOM) is designed for use in ultrafast fiber laser systems as pulse pickers to convert their high repetition rate from up to 50 MHz to kHz or any lower frequencies. the modification of the refractive index of some crystal or glass material by the oscillating. Fiber-coupled AOMs fulfill this critical role by leveraging the acousto-optic effect to modulate light based on applied sound waves. This high end RF driver model allows the user to apply either analog or TTL "sync-In" signals independently. Similar to the AOFS, the AOD uses a piezoelectric transducer to generate sound waves in an acousto-optic crystal. These sound waves create a dynamic diffraction grating that can deflect the incident light beam.
