Product description
The G&H AODF 4100-6 TeO₂ 1066–1100nm Near-Infrared Acousto-Optic Deflector is designed for beam steering and optical scanning applications in the near-infrared spectral region. It uses TeO₂ as the acousto-optic medium and operates in a longitudinal acoustic mode.
The device is specified with random input and output polarization, supporting use in systems where polarization is not fixed by the deflector specification. Its RF configuration is centred at 100 MHz, with 50 MHz RF bandwidth and a 60 MHz goal, supporting controlled beam deflection across the operating range.
The AODF 4100-6 uses a two element phased array electrode and is water cooled. With a 4 mm diameter active aperture, low insertion loss and specified MTBF test condition, it is suitable for OEM near-infrared laser systems, optical instrumentation and specialist beam steering applications.
