TC-A1 M Table Clamp Adapter

Wavelength 5.5 µm-1090 nm; Rise / Fall Time 10-160 ns/mm; Active Aperture 0.1-9.6 mm; Operating Frequency 40-200 MHz; Optical Material Crystalline Quartz, Germanium, Tellurium Dioxide; Type IR, Mid-IR, Visible, UVAcousto-optic modulators (AOM) allow the intensity of light to be controlled and modulated at rates that far exceed mechanical shutters, even up to 70 MHz. The AO modulators available from Gooch & Housego (G&H) are optimized for low scatter and high laser damage threshold. Rise time, modulation rate, beam diameter and power handling requirements of the application need to be understood in order to identify the best acousto-optic modulator and RF driver solution.An acousto-optic modulator (AOM) uses sound waves within a crystal to create a diffraction grating. As the power of the applied RF signal is varied, the amount of diffracted light varies proportionally. Modulators can be used like a shutter (cycling light on and off at a set frequency), or as a variable attenuator (controlling the intensity of transmitted light dynamically).Contact our sales team to identify the best RF driver for your specific applicationApplications: Heterodyne Interferometry; Intensity Levelling; Intensity Modulation; Laser Cooling; Laser Doppler Velocimetry; Laser Doppler Vibrometry (LDV); Laser Linewidth Measurements; LIDAR; Marking; Material Processing; Micromachining; Printing; Via Drilling Series Wavelength Rise / Fall Time Active Aperture Operating Frequency Optical Material Type Downloads I-M0XX-XC11B76-P5-GH105 5.5 µm 120 ns/mm up to 9.6 mm 40.68 - 60 MHz Germanium N/A Datasheet Driver   I-M050-10C11V41-P3-GH75 9.4 µm 120 ns/mm up to 9.6 mm 40/60 MHz Germanium Mid-IR Datasheet Driver   I-M041-XXC11XXX-P5-GH77 10.6 µm, 9.4 µm 120 ns/mm up to 9.6 mm 40.68 MHz Germanium Mid-IR Datasheet Driver   AOMO 3200-1220 257 nm 10 ns 0.25 mm 200 MHz Crystalline Quartz UV Datasheet Driver   I-M110-3C10BB-3-GH27 AOM 300 - 400 nm 113 ns/mm 3 mm 110 MHz Crystalline Quartz UV Datasheet Driver   I-M110-2C10B6-3-GH26 AOM 400 - 540 nm 113 ns/mm 2 mm 110 MHz Crystalline Quartz Visible Datasheet Driver   AOMO 3080-125 415 - 900 nm 25 ns 2 mm 80 MHz Tellurium Dioxide Visible Datasheet Driver Driver AOMO 3080-120 440 - 850 nm 34 ns 1 mm 80 MHz Tellurium Dioxide Visible Datasheet Driver   AOMO 3110-120 440 - 850 nm 18 ns 0.6 mm 110 MHz Tellurium Dioxide Visible Datasheet Driver   AOMO 3100-125 440 - 850 nm 160 ns 1.5 mm 100 MHz Tellurium Dioxide Visible Datasheet Driver Driver AOMO 3110-121 442 - 488 nm 18 ns 0.6 mm 110 MHz Tellurium Dioxide Visible Datasheet Driver   AOMO 3200-120 442 - 488 nm 13 ns 0.45 mm 200 MHz Tellurium Dioxide Visible Datasheet Driver   AOMO 3200-121 442 - 488 nm 18 ns 0.32 nm 200 MHz Tellurium Dioxide Visible Datasheet Driver   AOMO 3200-125 470 - 690 nm 160 ns 1.5 mm 200 MHz Tellurium Dioxide Visible Datasheet Driver Driver AOMO 3200-124 780 - 850 nm 10 ns 0.32 mm 200 MHz Tellurium Dioxide IR Datasheet Driver   AOMO 3080-122 780 - 850 nm 25 ns 1 mm 80 MHz Tellurium Dioxide IR Datasheet Driver   AOMO 3200-1113 870 - 1250 nm 10 ns 0.1 mm 200 MHz Tellurium Dioxide IR Datasheet Driver   I-M041-2.5C10G-4-GH50 AOM 1030 - 1064 nm 113 ns/mm 2.5 mm 40.68 MHz Crystalline Quartz IR Datasheet Driver   I-M080-2C10G-4-AM3 AOM 1030 - 1064 nm 113 ns/mm 2 mm 80 MHz Crystalline Quartz IR Datasheet Driver   AOMO 3110-197 1030 - 1090 nm 18 ns 1.25 mm 110 MHz Tellurium Dioxide IR Datasheet Driver  

Type IR; Wavelength 700-1100 nm; Operating Frequency 38-80 MHz; Active Aperture 2-3 mm; Window Type Brewster, AR coated; Optical Material Fused Silica; Acousto-optic mode lockers (AOML) modulate the loss within a laser cavity at its resonant frequency, effectively “locking” the phase of the longitudinal modes to generate very narrow laser pulses of high intensity. Gooch & Housego’s mode lockers for Nd:YAG, Nd:YLF, Ti:Sapphire and Argon Ion lasers can modulate at up to 200 MHz, yielding near-theoretical mode locked laser pulse widths. Antireflection (AR) coated and Brewster angle options are available. Customized one-off mode lockers can be designed for demanding scientific and OEM applications.The acousto-optic mode lockers from Gooch & Housego are manufactured using high quality fused silica, polished and fabricated in-house to ensure high quality and reliability. >99% transmission at 1064 nm is achieved by using a durable in-house antireflection V-coat. Low scatter and tight quality controls ensure that every mode locker is capable of handling high peak laser power over the long term without damage. The standard mode lockers include operating frequencies from 38 MHz to 80 MHz. The more modes are locked together in phase, the shorter the pulse. G&H’s standing wave mode lockers can obtain near theoretical mode locked laser pulse widths, with industry-leading transmission performance. The high-Q mode lockers can be used for Nd:YAG, Nd:YLF, Ti:Sapphire and Argon ion lasers at near infrared wavelengths to achieve picosecond and femtosecond length pulses at repetition rates of up to 200 MHz. The short pulses generated are often used in applications like nonlinear optics, optical data storage, femtosecond micromachining and multiphoton microscopy. High repetition rates are often desired for scientific applications, including those using optical heterodyne detection for spectroscopy, LIDAR or telecommunications. RF driver selection impacts mode locking system performance. Active temperature control of the acoustic resonator can assist in controlling resonant frequency such that resonance at the precise frequency of the driver's oscillator can be maintained. We can assist choosing the right driver for your application. Contact our sales team to identify the best RF driver for your specific application.Applications: Femtosecond Micromachining; fs/ps Lasers (Nd:YAG, Nd:YLF, Ti:Sapphire, Argon Ion); LIDAR; Multiphoton Microscopy; Nonlinear Optics; Optical Data Storage; Optical Heterodyne Detection For Spectroscopy; Telecommunications Series Type Wavelength Operating Frequency Active Aperture Window Type Optical Material Downloads 12041-3-BR-TE AOML IR 700 - 1100 nm 41 MHz 2 mm Brewster Fused Silica Datasheet 12080-3-TE AOML IR 1064 nm 80 MHz 3 mm AR coated Fused Silica Datasheet 12038-3-TE AOML IR 1064 nm 38 MHz 3 mm AR coated Fused Silica Datasheet 12041-3-TE AOML IR 1064 nm 41 MHz 3 mm AR coated Fused Silica Datasheet 12050-3-TE AOML IR 1064 nm 50 MHz 3 mm AR coated Fused Silica Datasheet 12038-3-BR-TE AOML IR 700 - 1100 nm 38 MHz 2 mm Brewster Fused Silica Datasheet 12050-3-BR-TE AOML IR 700 - 1100 nm 50 MHz 2 mm Brewster Fused Silica Datasheet 12080-3-BR-TE AOML IR 700 - 1100 nm 80 MHz 2 mm Brewster Fused Silica Datasheet
