Product description
The AOMO 3150 provides controlled modulation for visible laser systems where stable beam switching and reliable intensity control are required. Its tellurium dioxide acousto-optic material supports efficient interaction with visible laser beams, while its square aperture helps provide balanced beam handling in compact optical layouts.
Designed for precision visible laser applications, this modulator helps manage beam delivery, optical power and timing in scientific research, analytical instrumentation, microscopy, imaging, optical test and measurement and specialist photonics platforms. Its low optical loss and high contrast switching make it well suited to systems where clean beam control and signal stability are important.
