Embodiment Construction
[0040] Figure 6 is a schematic diagram of the basic principle of beam deflection via a pair of AODs 10 comprising a first AOD 12 and a second AOD 12' having counter-propagating acoustic waves for deflection in the X-Z plane in a known manner. scanning. The lattice constants of the crystals making up the AODs 12 and 12' are slightly modified by the acoustic waves propagating through them so that the AOD crystals act as gratings with modifiable grating constants.
[0041] Accordingly, an incident electromagnetic beam 14 (typically a laser beam) is split by the first AOD 12 into an undeflected zero-order beam 16, a first-order deflected beam 18, and a higher-order deflected beam, which is ignored in the following discussion because typically Only the first-order bundle 18 is of interest. The first order beam 18' deflected (diffracted) by the second AOD 12' will have the same direction as the incident beam 14 and thus the same direction as the zero order beam 16 defle...
