Abstract

This paper presents methods of microwave frequency offsets on the output of a laser beam by acousto-optic Bragg interactions. The Bragg cells operate at a subharmonic of the final microwave frequency and yield a tunable, single sideband offset. The optical system performing this operation is called a microwave acousto-optic frequency translator (MAOFT). The concept of the MAOFT and experimental arrangements are reported in this paper.
