Product description
The AOMO 3260-192 provides responsive modulation for compact near-infrared laser systems where fast optical switching and very small beam handling are important. Its tellurium dioxide acousto-optic material supports efficient beam interaction, helping deliver controlled modulation in precision photonics assemblies.
This modulator is particularly suited to systems where rapid beam gating, pulse picking, optical switching and intensity modulation must be achieved within a compact optical layout. Low reflectivity, high contrast switching, clear beam separation and compact RF integration support repeatable performance in optical test platforms, scientific laser systems, laboratory photonics and OEM instrumentation.
