  • Laser projection display is a full color display system for large area. In this system, laser beams are modulated at acousto optic modulators(AOM) according to the video signal. AOM consists of a $TeO_2$ crystal and a $LiNbO_3$ transducer. We calculated the acoustic wave propagating from transducer to acousto optic media and made AOM by the calculated results. We compared calculated results with fabricated AOM by measuring modulation efficiency at various frequency. The modulation efficiency of AOM is 85% at the carrier frequency of 144MHz and the rise time is 41.5 ns.

  • A dual loop optoelectronic oscillator (OEO) based on an acousto-optic modulator (AOM) for single mode operation with an acousto-optic delay line is demonstrated in this paper. When the OEO operates, the free spectral range is a function of the total loop length of the OEO, which is mainly dependent on the propagation time of the acoustic wave in the AOM. Due to the huge difference in the magnitude between the speed of light and the acoustic velocity in the AOM, the effective loop length converted to light-propagation length of the OEO increases to 3.8 km. With 150 MHz oscillation frequency, phase noise of -118 dBc/Hz at 10 kHz frequency offset, and -140 dBc/Hz at 200 kHz frequency offset, is achieved.

  • The flow direction in a glass tube is measured by using a forward scatering dual beam laser Doppler velocimeter with an acousto-optic modulator. We can determine the flow direction by measuring the shifted Doppler frequency which is dependent on the order of modulation of the laser frequency shifting moves only the Doppler signal, enabling complete separation of the Pedestal and Doppler singal.

  • A diode-pumped $Nd:YVO_4$ laser is developed. The laser has a closely folded resonator. The laser beam in two arms of the folded resonator passes the same acousto-optic modulator. The laser output power and pulsewidth dependence on a Q-switching frequency were measured. It is found that the newly proposed geometry provides an effective means for reducing the pulsewidth while maintaining almost the same output power compared with the usual folded resonator, where the beam in one arm of the resonator passes the acousto-optic modulator.

  • A versatile incoherent optical processing system is developed and analyzed in detail, in which an acousto-optic modulator is used to generate the temporal offset frequency for heterodyning and an optical scanner to process the input object in scanning mode. The operational characteristics of the systems are studied with respect to spatial filtering in terms of the spectral width change of the light source, the temporal offset frequency, and a scanning rate. To enhance the system's capability, two schemes for tuning the system's OTF, structural tuning and defocused object tuning, are also developed and verified with the MTF measurements and computer calculations.

  • A Gaussian beam of single mode fiber laser was changed into a ring-shaped pattern after it was transmitted through the hollow optical fiber. The ring-shaped beam was focused on a plane by an f-. lens and it was scanned by a Galvano-mirror. The spatial profile of laser energy incident on a plane had two peaks at both sides of the scanned linear track. The profile was compared with the result obtained when the Gaussian beam was dithered transversely by an acousto-optic modulator. It is found that hollow optical fiber beam shaper can replace acousto-optic beam dithering device which is employed in a laser induced thermal printing system.

  • 본 논문에서는 4변이 고정된 정사각형 알루미늄 평판의 진동 진폭을 측정하기 위하여, 기존의 위상 이동 ESP떼 스트로보스코프식 조사를 적용한 스트로보스코픽 ESPI 기법을 이용하였다. 일반적으로 시간평균 ESPI를 이용하면 진동하고 있는 대상체의 정성적인 진동 패턴을 측정할 수 있다. 그러나 시간평균 ESPI로는 진동하고 있는 대상체의 두께방향으로의 진폭량을 측정하기는 어렵다. 또한 일반적인 위상이동법을 적용시킬 경우, 대상체가 진동을 하게 됨으로써 정확한 진동 진폭을 측정하기 어렵다.(중략)
