Abstract

The collinear diffraction of Gaussian light beams by a two-frequency sound beam is investigated theoretically. A set of equations relating the amplitudes of transmitted and diffracted waves is derived in the case of third-order nonlinearity. The distributions of light intensities along an acousto-optical cell are calculated at different ratios between the radii of the light and sound beams. The transmission curves for detuned light waves and combination components of the diffracted waves are constructed at different ratios between the radii of the light and sound beams. The changes in the dynamic range of an acousto-optical device are calculated for different diffraction efficiencies.
