(9) the incident beam and the sound wave are subjected to abnormal Bragg diffraction to form a composite wave with a target diffraction angle.
The number of acoustic waves with different frequencies loaded by the acousto-optic crystal is reduced, so that the intermodulation phenomenon and the beam intensity modulation phenomenon of the acoustic waves are reduced, and the number of the acoustic waves in general research is less than or equal to 3; however, as the number of acoustic waves decreases, the upper limit of the number of incident beams corresponding to the combined wave decreases.
When the wavelengths of incident beams are different, sound waves with frequencies corresponding to the intersection points of diffraction angle curves of the acousto-optic Dixon equation are loaded in the acousto-optic crystal, so that the number of the sound waves can be reduced under the condition that the number of the incident beams is not changed;
in practical applications, reducing the intermodulation effect of the sound wave is also of great concern, and several methods for reducing the intermodulation of the sound wave are introduced below.
First, the center frequency of the acousto-optic crystal is located in a narrow bandwidth region, which is beneficial to reducing the acoustic wave intermodulation influence so as to design a corresponding acousto-optic crystal.
Secondly, under the condition that other conditions are not changed, the frequency interval of the acoustic wave loaded by the acoustic crystal is increased, and the reduction of the intermodulation influence of the acoustic wave is facilitated.
And thirdly, under the condition that other conditions are not changed, the length of the acousto-optic crystal transducer is reduced, and the acoustic wave intermodulation influence is favorably reduced. However, the length of the transducer must be such that the acousto-optic interaction enters the Bragg diffraction zone, i.e. the transducer length cannot be reduced indefinitely;
