Isomet

Isomet’s electronically controlled acousto-optic filters (AOTF) are specially designed for use with broadband light sources and are often used with non-coherent and divergent light.

Tunable AOTFs make use of the inherent dependence of wavelength sensitivity in relation to so-called Bragg diffraction and thus enable specific wavelengths of broadband light sources to be filtered out by applying different radio frequencies (RF). Corresponding RF drivers are also available.
