Product description

The AOMO 3307-121 provides fast, controlled modulation for violet laser systems where rapid beam switching and clean optical gating are required. Its crystalline quartz acousto-optic material supports stable modulation at short visible wavelengths, making it well suited to specialist photonics systems using tightly controlled violet laser beams.

Designed for compact, high-speed laser applications, this modulator helps manage beam delivery, optical timing and intensity control in scientific research, analytical instrumentation, laboratory photonics and precision optical platforms. Its high contrast switching, anti-reflection coated surfaces and heatsink-assisted construction support reliable performance in demanding violet laser systems.

  • Example AR Coating Curve (Guidance only)

    AR coating curve chart showing percent transmission (%T) plotted against wavelength from 370 to 470 nanometres. The single curve forms a smooth U-shape, starting near 1.0% at shorter wavelengths, falling to a minimum of just above 0.2% around 413 nanometres, and then rising again toward 1.0% at longer wavelengths, indicating optimum coating performance near 413 nm.
