    Area of Science:

    • Optics and Photonics
    • Interferometry
    • Acousto-Optic Modulators

    Background:

    • Classical acousto-optic modulator (AOM) interferometers often require dual radio-frequency (RF) sources, complicating synchronization and limiting stability.
    • Existing methods for amplitude modulation and phase control in AOM interferometers can have limited bandwidth and performance.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To present a robust composite acousto-optic modulator (AOM) interferometer driven by a single radio-frequency (RF) source.
    • To demonstrate enhanced stability, high-speed phase control, and relaxed component requirements compared to traditional designs.

    Main Methods:

    • Development of a single-RF driven composite AOM interferometer.
    • Integration of an external phase shifter for voltage-tuned amplitude modulation.
    • Theoretical and experimental relaxation of diffraction efficiency requirements via a complementary condition.

    Main Results:

    • Achieved long-term stability through inherent synchronization of the single-RF configuration.
    • Demonstrated rapid amplitude modulation and high-speed phase control with enhanced bandwidth using the external phase shifter.
    • Validated the complementary condition, reducing the need for high-diffraction-efficiency AOMs.

    Conclusions:

    • The single-RF AOM interferometer provides a stable and high-performance alternative to dual-RF systems, especially when high-end RF sources are unavailable.
    • The design facilitates high-speed phase control and amplitude modulation, broadening the applicability of AOM interferometry.
    • This robust interferometry technique holds significant potential for precision metrology, quantum optics, and optical communications.
