Conoptics' series of electro-optic laser beam deflectors are the most efficient mechanisms for changing the angle of a laser beam. They can scan a laser beam over a range of angles, or control the output angle of a laser beam with great accuracy. We employ a quadrapole electric field in an electro-optic material to produce a linear refractive index gradient proportional to the applied signal voltage.

General Information
As a result of our choice of material and the crystallographic orientation, we've eliminated the piezoelectric ringing that's normally associated with other deflectors. What's more, there are no moving parts, they do not fatigue with prolonged use, and entire beam is deflected (unlike the acousto-optic devices). The angular deflection of E-O Deflectors is small and has rapid random access response and is extremely precise.
