Laser Beam Scanner
Acousto-Optic Beam Deflectors Quartz UV
The AOBD Acousto-Optic Beam Deflectors offer non-mechanical, high-speed laser beam scanning up to 200 MHz, delivering precise position control with angular resolution in the nanoradian (nRad) range. The solid-state design ensures unmatched reliability and consistency, making these devices ideal for demanding applications requiring agile and accurate beam positioning. The AOBD operates by applying an RF signal to a phased array piezoelectric transducer, generating an acoustic wave inside the crystal. This wave forms a dynamic diffraction grating, which deflects an incoming laser beam at a specific angle when the Bragg condition is satisfied. By adjusting the RF driving frequency, the grating spacing changes, resulting in precise control of the diffraction angle.

System integration
Integration and compatibility
Use these checks to connect Acousto-Optic Beam Deflectors Quartz UV to the surrounding optical, mechanical and control system. Every value shown is taken from this model's own specification record.
- Wavelength and loss budget
- Wavelength: 266 nm, 355 nm, 395 nm
- Check the Laser Beam Scanner passband, insertion loss, return loss and power handling at the actual source wavelength; a nominal telecom-band label is not a substitute for the configured range.
- Control interface
- Driver: Non, Yes
- Match supply voltage, analog or digital command range, connector pinout and default optical state to the instrument interlock. Confirm the unpowered state explicitly — it decides what happens to the link on a power failure.
Technical FAQ
Integration questions for Acousto-Optic Beam Deflectors Quartz UV
How should the Acousto-Optic Beam Deflectors Quartz UV be included in an optical power budget?
Wavelength: 266 nm, 355 nm, 395 nm. Check the Laser Beam Scanner passband, insertion loss, return loss and power handling at the actual source wavelength; a nominal telecom-band label is not a substitute for the configured range.
Does the Acousto-Optic Beam Deflectors Quartz UV require a controller?
Driver: Non, Yes. Match supply voltage, analog or digital command range, connector pinout and default optical state to the instrument interlock. Confirm the unpowered state explicitly — it decides what happens to the link on a power failure.
