Custom Acousto-Optic Modulators

G&H designs and manufactures custom acousto-optic modulators for OEMs and system builders who need solutions beyond standard product configurations. As an experienced acousto-optic design house, we support customers with application-specific modulator designs built around wavelength, optical power, beam geometry, modulation speed, RF drive requirements, package format and volume production needs.

A key strength of G&H is our extensive acousto-optic material capability. We work with a broad range of AO materials, many of which are grown in-house, enabling us to match the material, device design and manufacturing route to the customer’s application. This gives our engineering teams greater control over performance, repeatability and long-term supply for demanding laser systems.
