Fiber-coupled AOM (Acousto-Optic Modulator)

An AOM requires an RF driver. An optional tool called "Tombak" is also offered for complex synchronization needs like pulse-picking a mode-locked laser source (CLICK TO ENLARGE)

Spectrum showing the various AOMs insertion loss that is below 5 dB over the full spectrum (200 MHz model) — When choosing the right model, the AOM typical insertion loss remains below 2.5 dB over 700-1300 nm and below 5 dB whatever the wavelength between 680 and 1850 nm (click to enlarge)

AeroDIODE offers the choice between TTL/digital and Analog AOM drivers. Select the TTL model if you plan to work only in On/Off mode : it gives better extinctions and the output power do not depend on the stability/noise of your voltage signal.

RF tunability of fiber coupled AOMs — A fiber coupled AOM is optimized for a given RF driving frequency. These products are particularly tolerant for other RF frequencies and the insertion loss remains low over a broad RF frequency range. Note that it is possible to specify a specific RF frequency in the "-250 to 250 MHz" range - scoll down to see this OPTION (Click to enlarge)

small box with various connectors — An AOM requires an RF driver. This RF driver model can be chosen with either an analog or a TTL compatible "Sync In" input signal.

drawing showing the light progression within the AOM — When the RF signal is Off, the light is blocked. When the RF signal is On, the light switch to first order and is injected into the fiber.

AOM with a fiber on both sides - second form factor — This model is for 1550 nm high speed modulation - Its rise/fall time is less than 10 ns

An optional synchronization tool is also offered for complex synchronization needs such as pulse-picking a mode locked laser.

schematic of a fiber coupled Acousto optic modulator with 3 fiber outputs — A dual output (3 fibres) AOM is also available as an option : it adds a third fiber to the AOM output to get the output light of "zeroth" order, i.e. the light going through the crystal without being deviated when no RF power is applied.

Fiber coupled AOM with a fiber on both sides — This fiber coupled AOM is available at various wavelength covering the 750-1750 nm range.

AeroDIODE fiber coupled AOM’s (Acoustic Optic Modulators) are used in fiber laser Q-switching and pulse picking applications, narrow line width laser measurements and many other applications related to precision fiber-coupled systems operating in the nanosecond range.

These fiber AOM’s are also used as a fixed frequency shifter. They have the ability to slightly shift positively or negatively the central optical wavelength by a fixed value equal to the RF frequency (±80, ±100 or ±200 MHz) depending on the RF frequency applied to the modulator.

These fiber Acousto Optic Modulators are used as stand-alone products as well as with other products in the AeroDIODE portfolio like :

These acoustic optical modulators are a high performance alternative to other fiber modulator solutions such as Lithium Niobate Electro-Optic Modulators (offered by companies such as iXBlue or Thorlabs). They also offer an alternative to the SOA/SOM semiconductor based fiber optic modulators offered by AeroDIODE. Please refer to our detailed tutorials on high speed fiber modulation to compare the various commercially available solutions: Fiber modulator basics.

It is possible to request a down-shifted module, meaning that the output light frequency is slightly lower than the input frequency (the wavelength is slightly higher). Select this option if you want a down shifted AOM. Note : this option needs to be selected only once (qty -1) whatever the number of down-shifted AOM units needed of a given AOM model.

Ref: OPTION-4 - Specific RF frequency optimization, Shipping: 3 - 4 weeks, PN: AOM- RF freq All our AOMs stock items are made for a given RF frequency : either +80 MHz, +100 MHz or +200 MHz. It is possible to request that the AOM is optimized for another RF frequency between -250 and +250 MHz (negative means down-shifted AOM, positive means up-shifted AOM). The 0-170 MHz absolute RF frequency range requires that a low loss/low speed AOM model is selected (models with odd numbers : models 1, 3, 5 etc.). The 175-250 MHz absolute frequency range requires that a high speed AOM model is selected (models with even numbers : models 2, 4, 6 etc.). Select this option if you want your AOM to be set for a different RF frequency (for example 45 MHz, 160 MHz or 215 MHz etc.) and indicate the exact RF frequency you want in the comments part. Note : this option must be selected with the same quantity than the number of AOM units needed of a given AOM model. This option is available for all AOM models described above. 3 - 4 weeks	695€ Add to cart
Ref: OPTION-5 - Dual output (3-fibers) AOM, Shipping: 5 - 8 weeks, PN: AOM- DualOutput This option adds a third fiber to the AOM output to get the output light of "zeroth" order, i.e. the light going through the crystal without being deviated when no RF power is applied. Typical insertion loss performances are the following : - RF power OFF : Zeroth order : <1 dB - RF power ON : Zeroth order ~12 dB ; First order <3 dB Important note : this option is only compatible with the low loss/low speed fiber coupled AOM models. These are AOM models with odd numbers : models 1, 3, 5 etc. 5 - 8 weeks	995€ Add to cart
