413 results about "Acousto-optic modulator" patented technology

An acousto-optic modulator (AOM), also called a Bragg cell, uses the acousto-optic effect to diffract and shift the frequency of light using sound waves (usually at radio-frequency). They are used in lasers for Q-switching, telecommunications for signal modulation, and in spectroscopy for frequency control. A piezoelectric transducer is attached to a material such as glass. An oscillating electric signal drives the transducer to vibrate, which creates sound waves in the material. These can be thought of as moving periodic planes of expansion and compression that change the index of refraction. Incoming light scatters (see Brillouin scattering) off the resulting periodic index modulation and interference occurs similar to Bragg diffraction. The interaction can be thought of as a three-wave mixing process resulting in Sum-frequency generation or Difference-frequency generation between phonons and photons.

Distributed sound wave sensing device based on PDH frequency locking and demodulation method

The invention discloses a distributed sound wave sensing device based on PDH frequency locking and a demodulation method. The distributed sound wave sensing device comprises a narrow linewidth laser, a first optical fiber coupler, a heterodyne phase sensitive optical time domain reflectometer and a frequency stabilization feedback module. The frequency stabilization feedback module comprises a frequency stabilization modulation and demodulation module, a reference cavity and a server; the frequency stabilization modulation and demodulation module comprises an electro-optical modulator or an acousto-optical modulator, a photoelectric detector, a multiplier and a low-pass filter; the first path of light enters a reference cavity for resonance after being modulated by an electro-optical modulator or an acousto-optical modulator, a resonance signal enters a photoelectric detector through cavity reflection, and a signal output by the photoelectric detector is subjected to signal demodulation by a multiplier and a low-pass filter and then is used as feedback to be input into a server for proportional-integral processing; the laser is fed back and output to a modulation interface of the narrow-linewidth laser, and frequency compensation is performed on the laser, so that the laser is locked on the reference cavity; according to the invention, through frequency stabilization and homologous modulation and demodulation, line width and phase drift of the laser can be suppressed at the same time.
