ABSTRACT:
An acousto-optic deflector is shown which diffracts a beam of incident light from a zero order beam into a first order beam. Normally such diffraction deflects but 1% of the light energy within the incident beam. This deflection may be improved by successive, internal transits of the light beam across the acoustic energy wave within the deflector. Such internal transits are accomplished by forming the deflector into a cylinder and reflection coating the outer surface of that cylinder to form a mirror pair.
