Product Overview
1550nm Acousto Optic Modulator
These high-speed fiber coupled acousto optic modulators offer fast amplitude modulation of laser light in an operating wavelength range of 1470nm to 1630nm.
Low Insertion Loss, High Input Power
These fiber coupled AOM’s are highly efficient, offer low insertion loss and high input power capability. The Bragg cell material is low-loss, and is chosen for its ability to support the high-Q acoustic refractive index grating that is fundamental to the operation of the acousto optic modulator. This AOM can operate with very high peak input power, and an average optical power of 0.5 W.
RF Driver for Acousto Optic Modulator
The AOM operates at a set frequency, determined by the physical configuration of the Bragg cell; this model operates at 80 MHz. A high power RF signal drives the acousto optic modulator at the operating frequency; the signal power is typically several watts. An RF Driver/Amplifier is required to amplify the low-level output from a signal generator to the power level needed to drive the acousto-optic modulator. The matched RF generators integrate seamlessly with the AOMs and provide a one-stop solution for high-speed, Q-switched, fiber-coupled laser modulation.
Two different matched RF drivers are available for driving the 1550nm AOM, one designed for analog input signals and another RF driver for TTL input signals. Links to these products are available below in the You May Also Like section.
