Abstract

We describe a 500 MHz, 2 microsecond time aperture, LiNb03 acousto-optic Bragg cell with minimal acoustic beam spreading and high diffraction efficiency. The cell utilizes an apodized phased array transducer. This device is particularly useful in wide bandwidth acousto-optic processing applications, such as optical correlation, where diffracted optical beam quality is important.
