Abstract
A modulator-frequency shifter with single-mode optical fibers for a radiation wavelength of 1064 nm has been developed and manufactured. The light beam was focused in the center of the sound column. Modulator switching time ≃ 18 ns. Operating mode: pulse, continuous. Total optical loss at center frequency: -3.2 dB. An expression for the frequency band of reception of the modulator is obtained. The estimates are in good agreement with the experimental data ≃ 40 MHz. It is shown that the use of a scheme with a focused beam makes it possible to implement a modulator with a minimum switching time ≃ (2-3) ns and a receiving frequency band ≃ (200-300) MHz.
