Abstract

A digital electrooptic light deflector is described whose deflection elements are an isotropic plate and an optically birefringent plate immersed in a refractive index matching oil. Total internal reflection or complete transmission takes place at the birefringent plate according to the linear polarization state of the light beam. The deflector is suited for large deflections and a broad band of wavelengths.

摘要

描述了一种数字电光光偏转器，其偏转元件是一个各向同性板和一个浸没在折射率匹配油中的光学双折射板。根据光束的线偏振状态，在双折射板处发生全内反射或完全透射。该偏转器适用于大角度偏转和宽波长范围。
