Q-Switches
AOMs can be used to diffract light out of its beam path, reducing the Q-factor of a cavity and preventing lasing. An additional application can be pulse picking.
Key Features:
- High damage threshold
- High efficiency
- Compact packaging
- Water- or conduction-cooled versions available
- Optional AOM drivers available

Modulators
AOMs can also be configured to create a diffractive sound grating in the modulator crystal. In this manner, they can be used as attenuators, shutters or frequency shifters for example.
