    • Image Processing
    • Acousto-Optics

    Background:

    • Acousto-optic (AO) modulators show promise for programmable real-time image processing.
    • Investigating AO modulator capabilities requires methods to derive spatial transfer functions across diverse physical scenarios.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To develop a general numerical technique for determining spatial transfer functions of AO modulators.
    • To analyze spatial filtering characteristics under different beam incidence conditions.

    Main Methods:

    • Numerical computation of spatial transfer functions for AO modulators.
    • Simulation of beam incidence at normal and twice the Bragg angle.

    Main Results:

    • The technique successfully derives spatial transfer functions for AO modulators.
