Free Space Acousto-Optic Modulators

Description

The Brimrose Free Space Acousto-Optic Modulator (AOM) with RF driver is used to vary and control laser beam intensity. It is electronically programmable using a microprocessor connected to the Brimrose RF driver unit. The RF driver features all the necessary components to drive the modulator with analog or digital input control.

Our free space AO products are housed in environmentally stable packages. They offer superior resistance to humidity and temperature, and are suitable for laboratory as well as various OEM applications and instrumentations.
