LBTEK-Acousto-optic modulator

Product Description

Can be used as an optical switch or variable attenuator
Can be applied in laser marking, lithography, material processing, medical surgery, micro-machining
Provides RF drivers and their power supplies matched to acousto-optic modulators

Under the action of Bragg diffraction, the LBTEK acousto-optic modulator only produces first-order diffracted light and transmitted light. It can be used as an optical switch (cyclically switching light at a set frequency) or as a variable attenuator (dynamically controlling the intensity of transmitted light or first-order diffracted light). It finds applications in fields such as laser marking, lithography, material processing, medical surgery, and micro-machining. LBTEK offers both free-space and fiber-type acousto-optic modulators, allowing customers to choose based on their application scenarios. Additionally, LBTEK provides radio frequency drivers that match the acousto-optic modulators. By inputting different modulation signals, the driver can generate specific waveforms. LBTEK also offers customization services for acousto-optic modulators. For customization needs, usage inquiries, or recommendations for related accessories, please contact LBTEK technical support.

Acousto-optic modulator, free-space type, water-cooled cooling

Working Wavelength: 1000 nm-1100 nm
Incident Light Polarization State: Vertical Linear Polarized Light
Diffraction Efficiency: ≥80%
High Damage Threshold
Water Cooling Interface Size: Ø6 mm

LBTEK acousto-optic modulators can be used as optical switches (cycling light on and off at a set frequency) or as variable attenuators (dynamically controlling the intensity of transmitted light or first-order diffracted light). To achieve optimal diffraction efficiency, the product requires high driving power. Since conductive heat dissipation is insufficient for operational needs, the product employs a water-cooling heat dissipation mode and must be used with a water chiller. LBTEK offers acousto-optic modulators for wavelengths from 1000 nm to 1100 nm, and provides matching RF drivers, water chillers, and power supplies available for purchase.

RF Driver

RF signal frequency: 80 MHz, 100 MHz
High stability, high precision
RF signal output port: SMA-F

LBTEK RF Drivers provide highly stable and precise RF signals. By applying different modulation signals, the driver can generate specific waveforms to meet the requirements of optical devices in various applications. These RF drivers are primarily designed for driving acousto-optic modulators. LBTEK offers models operating at 80 MHz and 100 MHz. The input interface is DB9, with an SMA-F output.

Each driver comes with a complimentary cable, featuring a DB9 connector on one end and bare wires on the other, allowing easy connection to the user’s power supply and signal generator. Wire mapping: red = +24 V power, black = ground, blue = digital control, green = analog control. For any technical inquiries, please contact LBTEK Technical Support.

Note: LBTEK RF drivers do not include power supplies or modulation signal generators. For accessory recommendations, please consult LBTEK Technical Support.
